MT5 for Android: Trading at Your Fingertips
With MT5 for Android, you can manage your trades on the go, keeping you connected to the market anytime, anywhere. In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to get started with MT5 on your Android device, from downloading the app to managing your trades. Let’s dive in!
Downloading and Logging into MT5
Start by downloading the MT5 app from the Google Play Store. Once it’s installed, open the app, and you’ll be greeted with the login screen. Enter your trading account credentials, including your account ID, password, and the server provided by your broker.
For example, if you’re trading with FX-K, you can find your account number in the Client Portal under the MT5 tab. The password and server details are sent via email when you create your account. If you’ve misplaced them, you can request a reset by emailing 안녕하세요@fx-k.com.
Adding a Trading Account
If you already have an account, you can add it to the app by tapping the menu icon and selecting “Manage Accounts.” Tap the “+” icon, then choose “Login to an Existing Account.” Search for your broker’s name or server, and input your account credentials. Your account will now appear in the list, ready for use.
Switching Between Accounts
Switching accounts is easy. Go to the “Manage Accounts” section from the menu, and tap the account you want to switch to. The app will instantly load the selected account, allowing you to manage multiple accounts seamlessly.
Adding, Removing, and Reordering Instruments
To customize your Market Watch list, tap the menu icon and select “Quotes.” Here, you can add, remove, or reorder the instruments displayed:
- To add an instrument, tap the “+” icon, search for the symbol, and tap to add it.
- To remove an instrument, tap the pencil icon, tap the trash icon, select the instrument you want to remove, and tap again the trash icon.
- To reorder instruments, use the pencil icon, then drag and drop the instruments into your preferred order.
For instance, if you frequently trade EUR/USD and GBP/USD, you can place them at the top of your list for quick access.
Opening Orders
Placing a trade on MT5 for Android is straightforward. Go to the Quotes screen, tap on the instrument you want to trade, and select “New Order.” You can set the trade size, stop-loss, and take-profit levels before executing the trade.
For example, if you believe EUR/USD will rise, select “Buy” to open a long position. If you think it will fall, select “Sell” to open a short position. Once placed, your trade will appear in the “Trade” tab.
Closing or Modifying Orders
To close or modify an open order, go to the “Trade” tab. Tap on the order you wish to manage, and you’ll see options to close or modify it. If you want to adjust the stop-loss or take-profit levels, simply modify the order, enter the new levels, and save the changes. To close the order, confirm your decision by tapping “Close.”
Pending Orders
Creating a pending order allows you to set up trades that execute when the market reaches a specific price. From the “New Order” screen, select the type of pending order you want (e.g., Buy Limit, Sell Stop). Set the entry price, stop-loss, and take-profit levels, and confirm the order. Your pending order will now appear in the “Trade” tab under a separate section.
For example, if you expect EUR/USD to drop to 1.1000 before rising, you can place a Buy Limit order at 1.1000, ensuring the trade executes automatically when the price is reached.
