Understanding Cryptocurrencies
Cryptocurrency instruments can react to liquidity, regulation, network developments, market structure and changes in speculative risk appetite. Volatility can be materially higher than in many traditional markets.
Availability, trading schedule, margin, spread and contract size are determined by the active MT4 symbol and account group. A digital-asset instrument in MT4 is a price contract and does not necessarily represent ownership of the underlying token.
Selected digital pairs
Access only the cryptocurrency symbols enabled for the selected MT4 group.
Extended market hours
Some instruments may remain available beyond traditional exchange sessions.
Higher volatility
Price changes can be substantially larger and faster than in many other markets.
Strict position sizing
Margin, contract size and maximum acceptable loss should be reviewed before entry.
What influences this market?
Liquidity and flows
Concentrated buying or selling can produce rapid price changes.
Regulation
Policy announcements and enforcement actions can affect market access and sentiment.
Technology events
Network changes, security incidents and adoption news can influence valuation.
Trading sessions
Some cryptocurrency instruments may quote across extended or continuous sessions, but provider maintenance and liquidity conditions can still create pauses or wider spreads.
Digital-asset prices can change dramatically in a short period. Thin liquidity, weekend conditions, regulatory events and technology news can increase slippage and gap risk.
