What is the best for Live: WIndows MT5 or Linux MT4? Isnt Windows too vulnerable?

[nadiawicket]

Is it? Anyone tried both and care to tell me is the Linux hassle worth it for stability or anything else?

Depends on your goal?

And skills, the way you set it up.

But it comes down to your own checking of connections and I/O traffic.

That's the same for all operating systems that are connected.

I've been trading for years on Windows, using different platforms ,with zero problems whatsoever. The operating system is not that of a big influence in security terms as the user is. Just don't click on suspicious Internet links, don't open attachments from strangers and so on. With good user habits all operating systems are secure.

This is not true.

And it will probably never be true.
