One of its good feature is that you can drag the stop loss and take profit after you take an entry. Or just input the stop loss or take profit in the platform while you are entering a trade without using the price instead use number (say 100 pips).

Recommended for forex traders who prefer not to isnatll anything on their phone or personal computer is using a web trading platform. However, web trading sometimes is just a use of MT4 or Mt5 by accessing the platform on the web only.

Broker’s Forex Trading App

A good broker should have its own trading app for its traders. I think almost all brokers has their own trading platform apps that can installed in android phone, windows phone, IOS phone, smartphone.

Forex traders prefer to install Mt4 or Mt5 in their phone and just use the login details in their phone app. In my case, when I trade forex, I will use the personal computer when reading charts, sometimes I access the web to analyze forex charts and then enter a trade using mobile phone.

So, the best forex trading platform is Meta Trader 4, you can install it in personal computer, laptop, android phone, smartphone, IOS phone and trade anywhere and anytime.
