Q: Do I need a powerful computer to run DXtrade? A: No. Because it is cloud-based, it runs as fast on a $200 Chromebook as it does on a $3,000 gaming PC.

Q: Can I use my MT4 indicators on DXtrade? A: No. You will need to find the equivalent indicator in the TradingView library (99% exist) or write a custom script in JavaScript.

Q: Is DXtrade safe? A: Yes. It is used by regulated brokers globally (CySEC, FCA, ASIC). The security is modern (2FA, session management), which is often more secure than MT4.
