How did you choose between MT4, MT5, cTrader and TradingView?

The platform you start on shapes your habits for years, and most traders end up using one platform for charts and another for orders.

For anyone deciding right now, share:

• the platform you started with and what you still use
• one thing you wish you'd known about it
• which platform you'd hand to a complete beginner

The platform comparison guide lays out the main differences without pushing any of them.
