Metatrader vs other platforms

I see that many of you are using Metatrader and would like to know the pros/cons versus other platforms like Accucharts. I see that it is customizable, but are there any other major features.

Also, what is the monthly charge and what company supplies the download?

metatarder is very good platform for long term technical analysis
but its terrible for small time frames like m1 and m5 .prices are inaccurate in
these time frames .
