I am just starting to work my way through babypips school and I am looking for a trading platform that I can practice on. Most of my practice time would be done with an iPad or iPhone whilst I have free time at work. I realise this is not the best way to learn but we have to make the most of our time and it will be a demo account anyway so basically what I am asking is what do people recommend would be the best learning platforms bearing in mind most of the analysis will be done in an iPad.
Any advice will be great fully appreciated.
I think it won’t be a problem for you to make a quick search on google for any demo platform, available on iPhone, Ipad. There are no particular criterions in picking demo platform they’re all standard from broker to broker with same spread and execution.
I’m the lucky owner of Apple production so installed MT4 from my broker https://www.hotforex.com/en/mt4-terminal/ipad-trader.html on my iPad. But this version is only to check trades, but it could a full-fledged trading station on demo, though.
Check it out and let me know if you like it.
Fxcm have a decent tablet version
Thanks profitbaby I ended up just getting meta trader 4 from the App Store just so I could have a play around with it. I found that I have more success on the laptop as I can get a better look at what the charts are saying. It is quite addictive once you start looking at the charts.
I have done work on MT4, cTrader, interactive brokers platform and FXCM’s platform. I prefer doing my analysis on FXCM’s platform, MT4 is good for the universal natural that it doesn’t change from broker to broker, interactive is good for the % change on the pairs, cTrader is great for market depth and the stop loos functions like break-even moves and legging out. Remember when you go live the spreads can really change the performance of your system. Hope that helps.
You may check vertexfx, as they have a mobile ablet versions with awesome performance, i guess for windows phone, ios and android.
also at work you can use the webtrader as its support the charting like the desktop trader.
Adjust for all
