Oanda - Keltner Channels

Good day, everyone.

I have used MT4 for two years now but am switching to Oanda. I have played with their FXGame Platform (demo) for about a month now to simply get a feel for the way it reacts.

The technical tools / indicators offered offered through Oanda do not include Keltner Channels, and my trading strategy uses this tool.

Is there an option for me?

Yes. Use MT4 for charting and Oanda for trading.

That's what I do too. I really like the flexibility of adjusting my lot sizes to fit my needs. Also Oanda has some helpful features with regard to placing your trade. One allows you to set up your trades to automatically be a certain % of your account.

Lou and Xaron,

Thank you much for your remarks. To be honest, (LOL!) I didn't even think of charting with MT4 and trading with Oanda?

Here is the last question to pose . . . what if I have a Mac computer. As we all know, Linux-based operating systems are not compatible with MT4. Therefore, which platform would I then use for charting purposes?

Thank you, in advance, for any remarks. I appreciate it, Lou and Xaron.

mt4 works with a windows emulator, I heard wine(?) makes it work for linux.

The only thing I don't like oanda is that the ydoesn't have the trailing stop loss function. you need to do minotor your posotion all the time

I appreciate the comments. I am under the impression that Oanda is now adding a trailing stop to their arsenal.
