Newbie : Not able to see Crypto in Meta Trader 5 desktop app

 

Hi All,


I just downloaded the meta trader 5 on windows and can only see forex option. 


When i right click and select symbols. I am not able to see anything related to Crypto. Can you guide me the right steps.


Thanks

Sumit

 

The symbols are related to the brokers: some brokers are proposing cryptos, some of them - not.

Two types of accounts are available in the trading platform: demonstration (demo) and real. Demo accounts provide the opportunity to work in a training mode without real money, allowing to test a trading strategy. They feature all the same functionality as the live ones. The difference is that demo accounts can be opened without any investment...

Where can I trade bitcoin though MT4?

There are some brokers for Bitcoin/USD for MT5 (I do not trade bitcoin for MT4 so I have no idea about MT4 broker for bitcoin):



 

The other brokers proposing the crypros - 

 

Thanks Sergey. I have created the account and logged in.

I was only able to see two default MetaQuotes Broker while creating account. 

In the Windows app Under Meta Trader 5 . Common Tab, I can now see two accounts one Demo another mine. 




Still not able to figure out how to add a crypto broker.

 
You created account to MetaQuotes-Demo server, right?
And you are asking the broker 9wheere to create account to) to trade cyprocurrencies, right?

In this case - you should create account with the brokers (demo accounts for example).
read my posts above on the thread about how to create an account and how to find the servers of the brokers (by the way - I've already pointed the servers of the brokers proposing the cryptoes - look at my images above).
