Comparison
MetaTrader 5 vs Webtrader
MetaTrader 5 and Webtrader are compared online in numerous articles. The term “mt5 vs webtrader” per se has more than 66,900 results — and this shows the importance of finding the best platform out there for you before getting started.
Depending on your trading style, the type of indicators you often use, or how customisable you need your platform to be, one will be better than the other. The main reasons why MT5 is preferred in comparison to Webtrader relate to:
| Feature | MetaTrader 5 | Aeron Webtrader |
|---|---|---|
| Customisation | Indicators can be fully customised by any user (doesn't need to understand a programming language). | Webtrader doesn't provide this feature, making it more limited. |
| Auto trading features | Expert Advisors for auto trading are available, and given the size of its community, it is easy to find support online. | Compared to Webtrader's Automate. |
| Interface | Highly customisable, at the cost of a steeper learning curve. | The Webtrader user interface is very intuitive, making it difficult for some users to switch to other platforms after they have tried it. |
| Market depth | MT5 provides one level of market depth. | Webtrader provides 3 different levels of market depth assessment, which provides a comprehensive picture of market depth. |
This will of course depend on the preferences of the trader and whether a smoother interface is preferred to the customisable features that MT5 provides.
