How To Change trading platform on EXNESS?
from Exness Guide
Exness offers multiple trading platforms, including MetaTrader 4 (MT4), MetaTrader 5 (MT5), and the Exness Trader App. Each platform is designed for different trading needs, and many traders eventually ask:
👉 “How can I change my trading platform on Exness?”
Here’s the important part: you cannot directly switch an existing account from MT4 to MT5 (or vice versa). Each account is linked to a specific platform at the time of creation.
✅ But you can easily open a new account on another platform while keeping your existing accounts active. This allows you to trade on MT4, MT5, and Exness Trader simultaneously.
