In my experience, ten years of data have around 1 GB memory size for one asset. So you need to have enough memory size on your disk before downloading history data.

First and foremost, it is essential to note that the data you can access in MT5 depends on your broker’s integration with external data providers. If the broker has direct access to various exchanges, they can provide more detailed and accurate data than brokers who do not have direct access. The most common source of market data are third-party providers such as Reuters or Bloomberg, but there may be other options depending on your broker.

Once you have established which exchange(s) your broker provides access to in MT5, you can begin downloading historical data. To do this, open the MT5 platform and press CTRL+U. This will bring up a window where you can choose the type of historical data you wish to download. You can choose between different timespans (for example, hourly or daily bars), timeframes (from 1 minute up to monthly bars), symbols (the currency pair or instrument you wish to analyze), prices (whether it should include bid/ask prices) and more specific options such as volume or open interest values.

Once you have selected all the desired parameters, click “OK,” The platform will download all relevant historical information into its database. Depending on your connection speed and the number of symbols requested, this process may take several minutes – an hour; once completed. However, all information is readily available for analysis in MT5’s built-in strategy tester or charting functions.

The ability to easily download high-quality historic market data from various sources makes MetaTrader 5 one of the most popular trading platforms amongst professional traders; it also allows newcomers in the finance industry an easy way to backtest strategies without needing additional software or special skills. When used correctly, having access to such detailed history can be highly beneficial when creating new strategies that offer consistent results or searching for attractive entry points based on past performance indicators.

How to Calculate MetaTrader Margin?

by Fxigor

One of the most important things to understand when trading with Metatrader 4 is how to call the collate margin. With a small capital, traders use leverage to increase their buying power.

This article will show you something many traders do not know – calculating the margin in MetaTrader for precious metals, stocks, and indices. I will show in this article that the margin formula is the same for gold and currency pairs but different when calculating the margin for stocks and indices.

Please see the whole video about how to calculate margin in MT4 from my youtube channel:

How to Calculate Metatrader 4 or 5 Margin?

To calculate Metatrader 4 margin, multiply position size units and price and divide with leverage. For example, if you BUY 1 lot EURUSD with 1:500 leverage and the price is 1.06, then your margin will be :

1.06*100,000/500 = $212

The formula to calculate the margin for forex pairs is:

Margin Requirement = (Price * Units) / Leverage

Let us see another example of calculating margin in Metatrader if the price is 1.06 and leverage 1:100, and I bought 1 mini lot.
First, determine the value of 1 mini lot in the trading account’s base currency. In this case, a mini lot is 0.1 standard lots, so the value of 1 mini lot of the currency pair being traded (let’s assume it’s EUR/USD) is:

10 000 (mini lot size) * 1.06 (the current price) = 10,600 USD

Next, determine the required margin based on the leverage provided by the broker. In this case, the leverage is 1:100, which means that the margin required to open a position is 1% of the total position size. Therefore, the required margin for a 1 mini lot position is:

10,600 / 100 = 106 USD

So, the required margin for this trade is 106 USD.

Precious Metals Margin in Metatrader

To calculate the margin for gold or silver in MetaTrader, you need to multiply the price and units and then divide with leverage. Please check your leverage because, for precious metals, leverage usually differs from forex pairs.

how to calculate margin in mt4 for stocks and indices

Required Margin = Price * Units * Margin %

32742.2 * 100000 / 500 * 0.01 = 163.71

As you can see from the previous example, brokerage companies decrease the margin value for stocks and indices and enable that even with $10 or $100, you can trade indices and stocks in MT4.

But let us again analyze the procedure:

First, it’s essential to understand that to use margin; you must have an account with a broker offering this feature. It is also necessary for the trader to be aware of the contract size for each currency pair they are trading, as this will determine how much margin they need for each trade.

In conclusion, calculating the margin in MT4 involves two key factors: the lot size and the leverage. To determine the required margin, you first need to calculate the value of the position size in the base currency of the trading account based on the current market price.

In my opinion, there are a lot of wrong formulas for margin on the internet for Metatrader because they use contracts or ounces instead of mini, micro, and lots units. Remember, in MT4, traders can use for position sizes only micro lots, mini lots and lots.

Next, you need to determine the required margin based on the leverage provided by the broker, which is usually expressed as a percentage of the total position size. MT4 provides a margin calculation tool that can be used to quickly and easily determine the required margin for a particular trade.

Remember that margin requirement vary depending on the broker, and the trading instrument being traded is essential. So, it’s always a good idea to double-check with your broker or consult the relevant documentation before placing trades. Your leverage can be different for different types of assets as well (one leverage for forex pairs and another for precious metals)

Are PAMM Accounts Safe?

by Fxigor

PAMM accounts are managed trading accounts designed to offer forex traders the opportunity to access professional money management services. PAMM stands for Percentage Allocation Management Module and is a form of investment that links an investor’s capital with an experienced trader’s expertise. With this type of account, the investor can essentially “outsource” the trading decisions to another person – the manager – who will make all trading decisions on behalf of their clients, most often without any input or consent from them. The manager will usually have access to higher levels of leverage and better spreads than most individual investors have access to, so they can maximize profits while minimizing risk.

With a PAMM account, investors don’t need to worry about making their manual trades; instead, they provide funds managed by a professional trader. This allows them to benefit from the experience and knowledge of having someone else manage their investments without worrying about researching markets themselves or manually entering and closing trades. The manager has complete control over how the money is invested and when trades are made, which provides the investor with potential returns that may not be achievable on their own. The manager also has complete visibility into each trade’s performance so they can make informed decisions quickly and efficiently.

In exchange for managing clients’ funds, managers receive a percentage of any profits achieved through successful trades. Depending on the specific terms of each PAMM account, these fees can range from 5-20% depending on how much profit is achieved through each month’s trading activities. Managers also sometimes charge a small flat fee to cover administrative costs.

Are PAMM Accounts Safe?

PAMM accounts is a patented safe technology based on technical specifications and the ability to do transaction allocations for each transaction processing system based upon the estimated handling resources. However, PAMM accounts are secure for investors only if the broker who provides the PAMM account is reputable and has a license.

The safest PAMM accounts are accounts from A-grade forex brokers. Please check the list of regulatory bodies that provide the safest environment for investors:

  • USA (Commodity Futures Trading Commission CFTC, NFA)
  • Japan (FSA Japan)
  • United Kingdom ( Financial Conduct Authority FCA)
  • Australia (Australian Securities and Investments Commission ASIC)
  • Singapore (Monetary Authority of Singapore MAS)
  • Hong Kong ( Securities and Futures Commission SFC)
  • Switzerland (Financial Services and Markets Authority FSMA)
  • Germany (Federal Financial Supervisory Authority BaFIN)

In addition to security measures offered within these systems, PAMM accounts are also subject to government regulations and compliance standards like any other major financial institution. For example, if you live in the United States, you should look for a PAMM provider registered with FINRA (Financial Industry Regulatory Authority). All reputable companies adhere to these regulations, which ensure your funds remain safe from fraudulent activities or misappropriation.

Money Managers and PAMM safety

Sometimes bad money managers can create a bad reputation for PAMM systems. People think if they lose money on PAMM, PAMM is not safe. However, a bad money manager and risky portfolio strategy can harm your account.

Tips to protect your PAMM account are:

  • Choose PAMM managers that risk less than 1% of their portfolio per position in one moment.
  • If you see more than a 10% drawdown, avoid that money manager
  • Avoid managers that open a large number of trades.
  • Avoid managers who close trades too often and, at the same time, keep losing trades for too long.

One micro lot: 21296.57-21348.58= -520 pips. So if the price decline 520 pips for lot size one micro lot loss is -$0.52

One mini lot: 21296.57-21344.98= -484 pips – So if the price falls 484 pips for lot size, one mini lot loss is -$4.84

One lot: 21296.57-21346.53 = -499.6 pips – So if the price decline 499.6 pips and your lot size one lot loss is -$49.96

Finally, the best way is always to try to trade on a demo account to check position sizes. Some brokers can increase pips value and the number of dollars so it can be ten times bigger risk. Currently, more than 95% of all trades in the crypto market are on Bitcoin and Ethereum, which is the most considerable volume and best liquidity.

How to Calculate Pips on Bitcoin? – Count Pips on BTCUSD!

by Fxigor

Bitcoin is a decentralized form of digital currency, also known as cryptocurrency. It was created in 2009 by an anonymous individual or group of individuals under the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto. The purpose behind its creation was to provide people with an alternative source of money that isn’t subject to traditional financial rules and regulations.

Unlike traditional currencies, Bitcoin cannot be printed or created through government intervention. The only way to acquire it is through mining, which involves complex algorithms and expensive computer equipment. Bitcoin transactions take place peer-to-peer over the internet, eliminating the need for third-party involvement in financial transactions, such as banks and other financial institutions.

For traders, one of the most convenient platforms for trading BTCUSD (Bitcoin vs. US Dollar) is MetaTrader 4 (MT4). This popular platform offers .advanced charting tools, automated trading signals, and access to hundreds of technical indicators that can help traders make more informed decisions when trading BTCUSD pairs.

  • If we trade one lot in MT4 and the bitcoin price rises from 27000.00 to 27001.00, that means 100 pips gain or $1.
  • If we trade one mini lot in MT4 and the bitcoin price rises from 27000.00 to 27001.00, that means 100 pips gain or $0.1.
  • If we trade one micro lot in MT4 and the bitcoin price rises from 27000.00 to 27001.00, that means 100 pips gain or $0.01.

 

Now I will make one test to show you how to count pips on BTCUSD. I will create three orders with three different position sizes. One trade will be one micro lot size order, one position lot size, and finally last trade one lot size.

  • One mini lot: 21296.57-21344.98= -484 pips – So if the price fall 484 pips for lot size, one mini lot loss is -$4.84
  • One lot: 21296.57-21346.53 = -499.6 pips – So if the price decline 499.6 pips and your lot size one lot loss is -$49.96
