MetaTrader 5
MetaTrader 5 just got smarter with OANDA. Enjoy added features including:
Built in depth of market on MT5
Depth of market allows you to trade large sizes in a single transaction as well as view pricing and spreads for larger sizes. Our spreads for typical trade sizes start from just 0.6 pips on EUR/USD. You can easily see the available liquidity for the market you wish to trade, meaning that the smaller your trade size, the tighter the spread we can offer to you.
