MetaTrader 4 (MT4) (Indonesia)
The older MetaTrader, and still the default for a large share of traders — not because it does more than MT5, but because two decades of indicators, advisors and habits were built around this exact window.
Open Exness Account →MT4 is the platform most traders meet first, and the reason is history rather than features: MetaTrader 5 is the newer terminal with more instruments, more timeframes and a different order model, while MT4 has the larger library of ready-made indicators and expert advisors and the layout that every older tutorial assumes. Both connect to the same account and are fed by the same prices, so the choice costs nothing either way — if MT4 is already familiar there is no reason to move, and if nothing is familiar yet, starting on the newer one saves a migration later.
