MT4 is not laggy anytime, when you experience something like that, then try to check your side whether it is from you that the problem came from. Many traders like to say a problem occur when they don't check their computer and internet connection, and this is very wrong to say a platform is laggy when your connection is laggyQuote:

When mt4 become laggy you should check your internet properly cause this laggy issue is not common but some times I have experience this laggy issue too while I try to take a trade or close one most time it's due to my slow internet connection and some times I experience my network was working fine and the reason could be due to over load of server that's what I suspect again.
MT4 is not laggy, it is a good trading terminal which is reliable for everything we will like to do in the market. Now when it is laggy on a trader side, it is the trader that has to look for what is wrong with it. There may be many things that cause the laggy nature, it is the internet that is mostly common of them all.Quote:

But in most cases, it is always from the trader, because the broker has done their part by providing alternative servers for their clients in case one server is malfunctioning.Quote:

Mt4 has work great for me right from the very beginning the web terminal is what I use first but I experience slow movement in this terminal because the internet i was using back then was 2g so it wasn't fast to use with web browser but since I switch to mt4 even with the 2g network am not experiencing any network issues, mt4 is a great trading terminal that doesn't have laggy issue if you network isn't super slow.
If it is a matter of slow Internet connection, then we cannot be blaming the mt4 trading platform for it. Although, it is not the slow Internet connection low that will be the issues of the price lagging time always, it might be the server of the broker in some cases, but this is not what is common, and it is forgivable. So, it is the traders that will look inward for correction on this regard.Quote:

but now. we are at the best broker where ROBOFOREX has best server and i never see any problems about this
I have being trading with roboforex for years now and I must say that I have never experience internal problem with mt4 because this terminal never give any problem like laggy movement it's always run smooth, maybe when my network connection is very slow due to low network coverage that's when my mt4 will not work and this problem is not from the mt4 terminal.
I still suspect that slow internet connection is the problem that the thread own might have face at that time because mt4 on mobile or desktop are good trading platform that never give us any problem, we can run this terminal smoothly on mobile or desktop without any problem but when your internet connection is very slow you will experience laggy issue.
It is not really common for mt4 for to be laggy at all, i believe when that happens, it can only cause by our network coverage, which is not the problem of the platform but our network coverage. This is a good platform for traders to make use, especially when you are a beginner it is important that you make this platform has your first choice of trading forex market because with this platform beginners can go smoothly in their learning and practice.
Sorry guys due to our slow internet connection cause such like a problem. I have experienced with different size of internet connection and not get any fault of the mt4 software. Computer configuration and the internet connection might be responsible for this problem. you might use CCleaner to make your pc fresh and change internet connection then your problem will be solved.
yes . good analysis for this problem where the first point here that we need to check the internet connection first whether low or fast. anf second if we use mobile or computer and make sure that we have enough RAM or memory to sustain it or there is not many software insralled which can dry the memory and effect to the device performance. maje sure there is no viruses at the device anf third as important thing here that we need to trade with good brokerd who offer fast and stable serverQuote:

As a forex traders, we have to be vast in everything pertaining to the market trading, that is why we should be ready for the market, and our gadgets and technical functions has to be ready also. The traders that has slow Internet connection will never enjoy trading, they will only be complaining. The trading gadget of the trader has to be fast and sound as well.Quote:

Meta trader 4 can become laggy when your internet start working slowly unexpectedly that could be the only possible reason why mt4 will become laggy there is no other reason why mt4 terminal will be laggy if not for network connection because as for the terminal it's program very well to work 24/5 days in a week without facing any kind of problem.
There are many reasons why mt4 trading platform can be lagging, and i have iterated it on this thread times without number. I will like traders to pay attention to that fact that the broker's server can cause the lagging of mt4, but this is not common, and when it happens, traders can change their server, the broker has given alternative. The remaining cause is from the trader, it might be slow Internet, Virus on the PC, Overloading of either PC or mt4 trading platform, etc.Quote:

Yes, internet connection is the major thing which cause the price on traders chart to be different from the chart on the broker chart, this makes me not to blame broker for what happen. But the traders that opened this thread is like blaming the broker and the MT4 for what happens to the trader, it should not be like that. Technical fault are happening every time and traders internet is the major problem.Quote:

Mt4 can be laggy especially when there is virus in your computer or your phone have no space, but the very common problem that can cause mt4 to be so lagging is the problem of bad network that we make use. So, if there is no such issue then there is nothing that can cause mt4 to be laggy, it will be better for traders to be ready in trading forex market for them not to encounter common issues during trading.
If what you mean is that your trade was not closed on time when you hit close on the terminal or that your profit closed lower than your expected profit then it means that you have a slow or bad internet connection which is delaying your orders from communicating quickly with the server, so try to get a better internet connection.
lagging will be from the operating system of the computer like windows because the windows may not be good or there is a viruses in the computer that makes the metatrader slow and laggy and so it is better to check the computer for viruses and also see if there is a problem in windows and then try to open metatrader again and see it works.
I think moderate web association is the primary driver of such issues. I likewise confronted same issue when my web association goes moderate. Uniquely at the pick hour in nation this sorts of moderate association are found here. At the point when web association turns out to be speedier sooner or later then the issue is unraveled.
Operating system of the computer has nothing to do with the lagging nature of the MT4, it is MT4 traders that suppose to look at what is affecting the trading terminal. I like to do trading with high speed internet, that may be what is causing lagging incident with MT4, other unsuspecting issues may likewise cause it.Quote:

as far as i know the reason behind that is if u have a slow internet connection or some other problem in your internet or if the performance of your pc is slow some like if your pc is infected by malware or virus that causing the platform performance laggy
Well if you find out that mt4 seems to be laggy then you should consider to check your internet connection because such problem can make mt4 to be so lagging. This is one of the best trading platform that i can assure any trader to makes especially if you are a beginner, then it is compulsory that such beginners should makes use of mt4 platform.
Anyone that is experiencing mt4 trading platform to be laggy should consider to refresh their app instead of blaming the trading platform, we newbie traders here are still new in making use of mt4 trading platform, so if it was not good to make use then at the first place our friends that have make use of it before will not advise us to make use of mt4 trading platform.
Basically it is mostly happened when you are having problem in your internet connection,or your internet connection is working slow so better check it resolve this issue.But this is mostly happened when you are having a very poor internet connection.
Usually mt4 can be laggy when we face the issue of internet connection. There are times that our connection can really gives us issues which can mt4 terminal to be laggy, but it will be good to have a good internet connection for we not to face such issues in trading the market. However, we should not allow little issues to bother us for we not to miss our direction in forex field.
well it can be laggy if you are having a bad internet connection which is making the platform to create lag or if your pc or lappy is infected with virus or malware which can also make the platform laggy so better check all of these to solve the issue of lagging of your platform
Bad Internet connecting is just the common thing that is causing the mt4 trading platform to be slowing down, and in that process, it might be laggy indeed. The solution to this is for traders to be working with the ISP that is good, when you have a fast Internet provider that hardly fails, then i am certain that traders mt4 platform will be working faster since the mt4 itself has no issue.Quote:

well it happens if your internet connection is much bad,because the platform dont need much speed,it uses less.But it can happen because of internet if connection is quite very poor,or if your pc or lappy in infected with viruses or some other malware that is making the platform to work laggy. So make sure both are clear then check your platform if it still laggy or not
well there are some factors have to checked by traders to find the problems and get the solutioQuote:
