Default How long is MetaTrader free for?

I been hearing about Meta Trader 4 but I can't figure out how long the free period will last.

Also is Babypips.com been offline recently? I had problems accessing the site a few days ago.

Metatrader is free forever, however the feed from your broker
you need to check yourself, North Finance forever, Alpari same.

Clearing cookies from my browser sometimes helps with this question 2,
also switching off my internet connection. But sometimes it
just needs you to be patient, do as the screen says "try again
later."

I was using one broker where it expired in 30 days, then I just opened a new account up and you can do that as much as you want. I know IBFX (Interbank FX) will only expire when the account is inactive for 30 days.

To clarify - mt4 is free indefinitely - while the broker demo account that provides the price feed usually expires in 30 days - fxcm said to be making soft release of MT4 in Feb, full release + 2-3 wks, should be interesting, I hope some other big players step in and offer MT4 too

Come again? Are you buying a data feed that uses MT4 as a platform? Metatrader has a web site where you can download for free but without a data feed (signal) it is of no use for trading. d.

For my demo account I have been with North Finance using MT4 since November. As long as you continue to make trades, the account will stay open...if you don't use if for 30 days, then it will expire, but you can open a new one whenever you like.

It seems though, that their news alerts stop coming after 30 days.

No, all data feeds are free.

I'm using PRS for spot strong trades, and other oscillators, some divergence staff, indicators...etc.


p.s- few screenshoots about market this minute ( you can see MACD, SAR, PRS, RSI and some others things)

eur/usd macd + sar + ...
