How to Login Exness on MT5? (Step-by-Step Guide 2024)

Should You Connect Exness to MT5?

MT5 is now available for over 300 brokers globally. If you know what you are doing, you can use the MT5 platform to trade without a broker. However, I find it much safer and more profitable to connect my Exness account to MT5.

What is MT5

First, what is MT5? MetaTrader 5 is a next-generation trading platform and the successor to MetaTrader 4. The platform allows you to trade worldwide in every market, industry, and instrument.

MT5 is free to use if your broker has paid for the license and can access the platform. Exness is one of the licensed users of MT5, so I can use MT5 for free with my Exness account.

Why Connect Exness to MT5

You should connect Exness to the MT5 platform. Here is why. From my experience, I find MT5 better in stock trading but slightly sluggish in forex trading. This is my experience, though: Other traders find MT5 just as efficient in forest trading.

You get plenty of other benefits when you connect your Exness to MT5.

MT5 has a wide range of tradeable instruments. For a multi-asset trader like me, I find sufficient options when I connect my Exness account to MT5. I can trade on commodities, stocks, CFDs, futures, options, and bonds there.

MT5 also offers a deeper set of advanced tools and features, such as the MQL5 programming language, additional graphical objects and indicators, new statistical functions, an enhanced version of Strategy Tester, and the ability to both hedge and net trades.

These features have made it easy for me to analyze the market, try different strategies, and place my trades.

Other Options Besides MT5

There are plenty of options besides MT5. While I have not tried many of them, Exness is better than the few I have tried out.

Popular options available today include Pocket Option, Quotex, and IQ Option. These platforms are not as diverse as MT5 and have limited features compared to MT5. I’d rather login Exness in MT5 than these substandard alternatives.
