FAQ
Questions on stock, index & cfd expert advisors.
Can MetaTrader trade stocks and indices?
Yes, if your broker offers those instruments on MetaTrader. Availability differs by broker, so check your account’s symbol list.
What about trading Indian equities or futures through a broker API?
That is outside MetaTrader. Send the details of your platform and strategy and you will get an honest answer on whether it can be built and how.
Are stock strategies different from forex ones?
They need extra care: market hours, gaps at the open, and per-symbol contract sizes. These are handled in the specification.
