Meta Trader

Metatrader is just a software what is available for free. No costs for demo trading.
When you trade at a broker you pay the spread.

This is correct.

Avoid MT4/5 Brokers and the platform.
These brokers use back-end plugins called "mt4 broker dealer plugins" - do a google search and you see a plethora of information about this.

You will not make ANY money using MT4/5.

t. Someone now banned from the Metaquotes website for trying to alert others.

Interesting I'll look into this. I have made money with metatrader 4 before but I only trade 5000$ accounts at the most

I use another broker that doesn't use mt4 http://www.sandton.direct

I'm not sure if they use something similar as well

Then can somebody explain to me how do I find a good trading software/platform?
Once again, Degiro sucks, it takes days to transmit money from my banking account, the technical analysis and data sucks, and orders seem to take time to be effective. Additionnaly, I doubt the datafeed is really 'live' (I mean stock price do not seem to be up to date, there seems to be a short delay, but I may be wrong--sorry for broken English)

Interactive BRokers with TWS or Ninjatrader.

>>1737082
this. or use the IB API to build your own.

>>1738215
FIX API is the way to go.

Interactive Brokers is also a listed company.
Should be a red flag right there.

Too bad the US regulators shut down the only remaining decent broker for US residents. Now there is only three remaining bucketshops, kinda like a monopoly.
