User Testimonials
	MetaTrader 5	TradeStation
Likelihood to Recommend	MetaQuotes Ltd 1. it is best suited in terms of algorithmic trading, where it helps in better understanding with time intervals and easy-to-use UI . Best for forex trading. 2. Security feature is not well trusted. anyone can join, anyone can fake with screenshots and pics and can show the fake profits which are breaking the trust. There must be a system to not support these activities. Incentivized Neeraj Kumar Gupta DevOps Architect Read full review	TradeStation No answers on this topic
