Use MetaTrader 4 WebTerminal in a Browser
MetaTrader 4 WebTerminal provides browser-based access to supported trading accounts without installing the desktop terminal.
WebTerminal is useful when local software installation is not practical. You still need a valid trading account, the correct server and web access enabled by the connected trading service; availability may differ between brokers and account types.
Which MetaTrader 4 Version Should You Download?
Choose the version by device and use case. Windows or macOS is best for a full desktop setup, Android and iOS are intended for mobile account access and trade management, and WebTerminal is useful when browser access is supported and local installation is not practical.
Android and iOS for Mobile Account Access
Choose the Android or iOS app when you need to check quotes, review charts, monitor positions or manage supported orders from a phone or tablet.
How to Install MetaTrader 4
Installation depends on the device. Windows and macOS use desktop installation packages, Android and iOS use mobile apps, and WebTerminal runs in a supported browser without a local desktop installation.
Install MetaTrader 4 on Windows or macOS
Download the package that matches your desktop operating system, run the installer and launch MetaTrader 4. After installation, connect an existing trading account using the correct login and server.
Use WebTerminal Without Installing Desktop Software
WebTerminal runs in a browser, so no desktop package is required. A valid trading account, the correct server and web access supported by that server are still required.
Install MetaTrader 4 on Android, iPhone or iPad
Install the app that matches the mobile operating system, then sign in with an existing trading account and the matching server. Once connected, the app can load the account and market data available to that login.
How to Log In After Installing MetaTrader 4
Installing MetaTrader 4 gives you the trading software, not a trading account. To connect an existing account, enter the account number and password, then select the matching trading server. All login details must belong to the same account environment.
Enter Your Trading Account and Password
Use the login and password assigned to the trading account. After successful authentication, MetaTrader 4 can load the balance, positions, pending orders and trading history available to that login.
Select the Correct Trading Server
The server name must match the trading account. Choosing the wrong server can prevent login or leave quotes and account data unavailable even when the account number and password are correct.
Confirm Account Data and Quotes Have Loaded
After login, confirm that account data, quotes and available symbols load correctly. Spreads, leverage, market hours, symbols and execution conditions come from the connected broker and account rather than the MetaTrader 4 installation file.
