Well,
I have posted a lot of posts regarding options other than PC, for MT4 work.
esp. mobile phones and tablets etc. (Kindly search On FF regarding those threads). They contain a lot of info based on experience.

Currently, i use Newly Launched MT4 for android app on this 7incher HTC FLYER Android Tab (cum earphone-less phone). The app only allows built in default indi's of course.

Are there some users that use Android MT4 regularly?
I would appreciate your comments on what is available now and how convenient it is to use (I don't have a need for special indicators, just some MAs on the chart).

I do all my trading thru android htc 4.8 inch screen. One of my brokers is MT4 and never had any problem. Always enter limit orders though except when exit position at market.

brings me luck as kicking new highs in my account so I will keep it !

however, screen too small to read news daily so not really full solution when on the move.

My feel is that MS will deliver this time and I am keeping open eyes as planning couple of months away but will keep trading.

From indicators I only use ATR to set stop

Thanks seaman2. That's encouraging.
I am assuming you get one chart at a time, can you save chart template? For example, if my M5 is different from H1, if I switch between the timeframes, do I need to change the format from the beginning, or can I have saved templates?

sorry, duno, don't use templates. I am more longterm guy and fire on average once per 2 weeks several positions, depending on signal & market. I only use ATR indicator for stop calculation. It is perfect for setting limit orders, stops, moving stops. Also exit at market never had a problem but always check balance after just in case. That is why I have several smaller positions in case something goes wrong,press wrong button, press multiple times, lost connection etc.

My input in trading are news and 4.8 inch screen is not enough if on the move. My wife's ipad with MT4 is enough but I hate ipad. So looking eagerly what Microsoft can deliver. I think android or apple system are not as sophisticated as msoft. I would not trade shortterm with market entries.

Can windows tablet running custom indicator? thanks

If it is a Surface Pro, the answer is yes because it runs Windows 8. But of course there will the same problems as others have with Build 600+.

If it’s of any help, I use an iPad Pro for MT4 (don’t have a laptop) with any of the indicators available, 4 different currencies displayed on screen and fast entry/exit buttons to execute. Making an average of 20 trades each day, please let me know if there is a simpler or more satisfying methodology to use. Wouldn’t mind some sort of radio broadcast devoted to currencies though!
