MetaTrader 4

Any broker that offers the MT4 software can be considered an MT4 broker – such as Capital.com!

No, MT4 is not a broker itself, but instead is a software suite that connects to a broker – like Capital.com – for trading.

MetaTrader 4 enhances your trading experience with real-time charts, live quotes, in-depth analytics and a range of order-management tools and indicators. It also allows you to automate your trading by applying algorithms that automatically open and close your trade positions in line with preset parameters.

MetaTrader 4 can be helpful for beginners due to its highly customisable, user-friendly interface. It also has a wide range of Smart Trader tools, add-ons, and indicators that could help you make more informed decisions. It can also be a good place to try automated, algorithmic trading.

Yes. Capital.com customers in countries registered under our ASIC, CySEC, SCA, FCA and SCB licences can use their live or demo CFD trading account on MetaTrader 4. This integration is not yet available for residents of France.

MetaTrader 4 is completely free to use. However, you can incur costs charged by your broker in the form of fees charged on spreads or commissions (or other fees).

Common checks may include your email, password, two-factor authentication method, account status, MT4 login credentials and server name. The MT4 password and server may differ from the main app login where applicable. Device security, app version, internet connection, firewall or VPN settings and whether the MT4 account is enabled for your region can also affect access. If access is still blocked, contact Capital.com support through the official account channel.

Common checks may include the Capital.com MT4 login, password and server, whether the MT4 account is active and whether it is enabled for your region. Other possible factors include the internet connection, firewall or VPN, platform version, market hours and whether the selected instrument is available for the account type. If you’re moving from another broker, local templates and indicators may be reusable, but open positions, history and broker-specific settings don’t migrate.
