The OANDA Advantage, on MetaTrader 4
OANDA’s fxTrade trading platform uses sophisticated algorithms to source real-time rates and render them as ultra-tight tradable OANDA Spreads. Clients appreciate our consistently competitive prices—and many other features that set OANDA apart from other forex dealers:
Our spreads are not negotiable. Everyone gets exactly the same spread, regardless of account size, trade size, customer type, or trading platform.
No-hassle demo account. We offer a free practice trading account that never expires.
Transparency and fairness. Our reputation means you can bank on our benchmark standards. OANDA provides full access to MetaTrader 4 tools, while maintaining our quality fxTrade execution. (OANDA's MetaTrader 4 does not include the MT4 Virtual Dealer plug-in.)
OANDA fxTrade bridges directly to MetaTrader using custom-built technology, so we don’t need to inflate our spreads to cover any third-party fees for linking our trading engine with the MT4 user interface.
MetaTrader 4 offers popular features for algorithmic forex trading:
- Programmed trading strategies
- Tools for customizing trade indicators
- Automated trading alarms and signal messages
- Community-sourced indicators and expert advisors
- Trading in 17 languages
