MetaTrader 4 is a widely used forex trading platform developed by MetaQuotes. While the platform supports advanced functionality to streamline and automate trading operations, keeping the server up and running can be a challenge that takes a lot of effort. This can especially be difficult for forex brokers who have to manage so many trading activities. They can face issues such as server freezes, MT4 latency, lagging, slow execution of orders, etc. These symptoms are a sign that you need to optimize your MT4 server to prevent any issues with performance.
