Trading Platforms

Global Prime offers MetaTrader 4, TraderEvolution and FIX API platforms.

MetaTrader 4

Clients can trade on the popular MT4 platform, best known for trading in the foreign exchange market. MT4 offers advanced charting features, 30 built-in indicators, one-click trading, automatic investing via API and other features.

The MT4 platform is suitable for clients who want to use trading in an institutional style. MT4 is also suitable for both beginners and more experienced traders.

TraderEvolution

The TraderEvolution platform is designed for professional traders who are looking for more advanced features for order entry, analysis and algorithmic trading. The platform is provided with 14 fully customizable chart types, multiple time frames, the ability to view market depth and one-click trading.

It features the same pricing and execution as the MT4 platform, but offers greater transparency regarding liquidity, Tier 2 pricing, DoM trading, and volume analysis.

FIX API

The FIX API solution is also designed for professional traders who want to deploy their own algorithmic trading solutions with the lowest possible latency. The platform is best suited for experienced traders who need flexibility when using any programming language.

What is especially useful is the ability to connect directly to trading servers in real time, unlike third-party programs such as MT4. For easy account management and access, trades are copied to either an MT4 account or a TraderEvolution account.
