In my personal experience evaluating FXTF, I have found that their platform choices are somewhat focused, but generally reliable. FXTF grants access to the MetaTrader 4 (MT4) trading platform, which I consider an industry standard due to its strong charting functionality and widespread tool support. I appreciate that they offer a full MT4 license, which usually means stable access and proper integration for both manual and automated trading. MT4’s widespread popularity reassures me about the long-term flexibility and support I can expect as a trader. However, FXTF does not provide access to MetaTrader 5 (MT5) or cTrader, which does limit the possibilities if you’re someone who relies on multi-asset trading or more advanced order types that MT5 and cTrader sometimes support. I also note the presence of their proprietary GX trading system. While I generally prefer tried-and-tested platforms like MT4, I think having an in-house system can be valuable for users looking for features tailored by the broker, and FXTF’s GX app does offer access across devices. Ultimately, for me, the ability to use MT4 with a local Japanese broker under FSA regulation is a strong point, but if you’re seeking MT5 or cTrader, FXTF would not meet those platform requirements. I emphasize the importance of selecting a platform you’re confident navigating, and for my trading needs, MT4’s presence is a positive, though the lack of other major platforms is a tradeoff to consider.
