Web Terminal Features

The Exness Web Terminal offers several core capabilities intended to streamline the user experience. These functions are centered on execution accuracy, speed, and data clarity. As of early 2025, the platform’s uptime rate exceeds 99.99%, ensuring that traders remain connected during active market sessions:

  • Real-time quotes for all instruments with pricing updated up to twice per second.
  • One-click trading from the chart window or order panel.
  • Customizable interface, including chart types, themes, and technical tools.
  • Over 50 technical indicators and drawing tools.
  • Integrated economic calendar synced with platform time.
  • Multi-language interface with over 15 supported languages.

Accessing Web Terminal

You only need a validated account and a reliable internet connection to use the Exness Web Terminal. You can use the platform with most popular browsers, such as Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge. You can log in at terminal.exness.com, which offers two-factor authentication (2FA) for extra protection.

Login Process

There are three basic steps to the normal login process. When sending credentials, the system uses 256-bit encryption to keep them safe:

  • Go to the terminal site: Launch a web browser and go to terminal.exness.com.
  • Put in your credentials: Use the email and password you registered with.
  • If 2FA is turned on, pass the check: Enter the code from the authenticator app or SMS.

After you log in, the terminal connects to the server in less than 100ms in most areas.

Account Selection

After login, the system presents available accounts, typically grouped by type:

  • Standard Cent.
  • Standard.
  • Raw Spread.
  • Zero.
  • Pro.

Each account displays its balance, leverage, and server name. Traders can switch accounts without leaving the terminal, with session transitions taking less than 2 seconds.

MT4 Web Terminal

The MT4 Web Terminal is a version of MetaTrader 4 that runs in a web browser and works with Exness’s infrastructure. This program is for people who like the simplicity of the MT4 environment but don’t want to install anything. It keeps almost all of its key features, with data feeds that update every 0.5 seconds and a focus on scalability for fast-paced trading settings.

MT4 Web Terminal

The interface mirrors the desktop layout, including:

  • Market Watch window with over 100 symbols.
  • Charting area supporting 9 timeframes from M1 to MN.
  • Navigator panel to switch between accounts.
  • Trade tab to monitor open and pending positions.

Over 30 built-in indicators are available in the MT4 Web Terminal. The system does not currently support the import of custom indicators or Expert Advisors (EAs), due to browser constraints. However, the execution time averages 120 ms, which is within acceptable limits for most trading strategies:

ParameterMT4 Web Terminal
Indicators Available30+
Custom Scripts SupportNo
Order Execution Speed~120 ms
Chart Timeframes9 (M1–MN)
Symbol Count100+

Types of orders that are supported:

  • Market Orders, Pending Orders (Buy/Sell Limit, Buy/Sell Stop).
  • Stop Loss and Take Profit Trailing Stop (must be managed by hand).

Users can see the specifics of all their trades in the trading history tab for the last 90 days.

MT5 Web Terminal

The MT5 Web Terminal is a more complex platform that is built for consumers that need more trading features and access to additional financial markets. You may trade FX, futures, stocks, and cryptocurrencies straight on the web using MT5.

MT5 has 21 periods, while MT4 only has 9. You can also open up to 100 chart windows at once in MT5. Users of Exness who utilize MT5 can access the Depth of Market (DoM) module, an economic calendar, and a built-in chat feature that lets them talk to one other.

Core Advantages:

  • 38 technical indicators and 44 analytical objects.
  • Depth of Market (Level II pricing).
  • Economic calendar built into the UI.
  • Netting and hedging modes supported.
  • Multithreaded strategy tester (only in desktop, but orders sync via cloud).

Exness MT5 accounts on the web terminal also support six types of pending orders compared to four in MT4. These additions include Buy Stop Limit and Sell Stop Limit, allowing greater control in volatile market conditions.

Web Terminal vs Desktop Platforms

The trader’s workflow and device settings will mostly decide if they use the Web Terminal or install the desktop versions of MT4 or MT5. There are different performance metrics, restrictions, and ideal usage for each option. Exness believes that by 2025, roughly 38% of people will use the Web Terminal, 52% will use a desktop, and 10% will only trade on their phones.

Performance Comparison:

CriteriaWeb TerminalDesktop Terminal
Installation RequiredNoYes
Execution Speed (avg ms)~120–150 ms~90–110 ms
Indicator Support30–38 built-inUnlimited (includes custom)
Custom Scripts (EAs)Not SupportedFully Supported
Chart CustomizationBasic to ModerateAdvanced

Multi-Account SwitchingYes (Instant)Yes (App reloads required)

Pros of Web Terminal:

  • Accessible on any device with a modern browser.
  • No updates or installations.
  • Secure session encryption with 2FA.
  • Fast login and switching across accounts.

Pros of Desktop Terminal:

  • Full access to Expert Advisors and algorithmic trading.
  • Unlimited customization of indicators and templates.
  • Smoother performance for high-frequency strategies.
  • Local data backup and offline chart review.

Traders operating from shared or public devices often prefer the web version due to its non-persistent storage and faster logouts, while algorithmic traders with EA scripts and backtesting needs lean toward desktop versions.

System Requirements

The Exness Web Terminal is designed to run efficiently even on mid-range systems, minimizing the load on the device and browser. However, to maintain performance, certain technical specifications are advised.

Recommended Browser Specifications:

ComponentMinimum RequirementRecommended
Browser VersionChrome/Firefox 90+Chrome/Firefox 110+
RAM2 GB4 GB or higher
CPUDual-core 1.5 GHzQuad-core 2.5 GHz
Internet Speed5 Mbps20 Mbps or higher
Screen Resolution1024×7681920×1080

Supported Operating Systems:

  • Windows 8.1, 10, 11.
  • macOS 10.14 or later.
  • Linux-based distros (Ubuntu, Fedora).
  • iPadOS and Android (for mobile browser use).

The terminal works well on lower-end computers, but if you have less than 3 GB of RAM and load more than 4 chart tabs at once, you may have slowness. Also, to minimize problems and memory spikes, it’s best to turn off browser extensions that aren’t related to trading.

Troubleshooting Connection Issues

Let’s be honest: even the best platforms have connection troubles from time to time. Your chart can freeze when the market is really volatile, or you might get trapped on a loading screen just before news breaks. It’s annoying, especially when timing is essential.

Most of the time, problems with the Exness Web Terminal aren’t flaws in the platform; they’re mainly problems with your internet, browser, or device. Data from early 2025 shows that roughly 6.3% of failed logins were caused by weak or unreliable connectivity. 4.1% more? Browser settings that aren’t set up right or extensions that are in the way.

Common Problems & Quick Fixes:

IssueWhat’s Going OnHow to Fix It
“Waiting for server…”Your internet might be slow or unstableRun a speed test. Aim for 5 Mbps or more
“Account not found”Likely wrong login details or server nameDouble-check account and server info
Charts won’t loadBrowser cache or conflicting extensionsClear cache; disable ad blockers or plugins
Trading panel freezesLow memory or old browser versionRestart the browser; update to latest version
Session times outInactivity for over 15 minutesJust refresh and log back in

Sometimes it’s not your fault at all. If there is a lot of traffic on your ISP’s network, latency can suddenly skyrocket. If you’re in an area with severe firewall rules, using a VPN can assist. Just make sure it’s a trusted one with stable servers in Europe or Singapore.
