I am having the same question, I would like to add ILS to my Meta Trader platform, I am a beginner, I have been taking courses for six months, but I was never taught how to customize my MT4.

I have tries my best to follow FxMaestro's suggested post, but I failed to follow the instructions.

Could someone please, hopefully FxMaestro, tell me how to add USD/ILS to Meta Trader in simple English? I would appreciate it so much.

Unfortunately I can't start a new thread as a "junior member" so I would love to get an answer here.

Thank you guys.

You can't just add any currency pairs you want to your platform. It depends on what your broker supports.
If your broker doesn't do ILSUSD then artificially adding it to your platform won't work anyway.
You are in a maze of twisty little passages, all alike.

For all of those who might be looking for ILS crosses, I finally found them on AVA Meta Trader. Thanks to a wonderful forum member here.

- Open MT4 and go to the 'Market Watch' window.
- Right-click in this window and select 'Show All' or 'Symbols'.
- Look for ILS/USD in the list. If it's there, add it to your 'Market Watch' by right-clicking and selecting 'Show' or 'Add'.
- If you can't find ILS/USD, it may not be offered by your broker. In this case, contact your broker or consider a different one that offers this pair.

Thread is since 2009, but reminds me of this, what is the naming convention for currency pairs?

Not many noobs know this:

https://shorturl.at/fiMU4

The alphabetic code is based on the ISO standard, ISO 3166, which lists the codes for country names. The first two letters of the ISO 4217 three-letter code are the same as the code for the country name, and, where possible, the third letter corresponds to the first letter of the currency name.
For example:

  1. The US dollar is represented as USD – the US coming from the ISO 3166 country code and the D for dollar.
  2. The Swiss franc is represented by CHF – the CH being the code for Switzerland in the ISO 3166 code and F for franc.


Therefore, IL is Israel and S is Shekel = ILS

It takes a lot for me to IGNORE you, but you can try.

I never knew that the ISO standard was used here
