Retail FX/CFD trading company SquaredFinancial has unveiled a new Social Trading tool for the MetaTrader 4 (MT4) platform, expanding its suite of trading solutions. The feature aims to enhance the user experience by enabling traders to mirror the strategies of top performers across different MetaTrader versions.

SquaredFinancial Brings Social Trading to MT4

The Social Trading tool allows MT4 users to copy trading strategies from both MT4 and MT5 platforms, providing a cross-server solution that bridges the gap between the two popular trading interfaces.

According to a press release from SquaredFinancial, the solution works both ways. Users who regularly use MT5 can also copy and follow the strategies of traders using earlier versions of the platform.

“MT4 enthusiasts, whether beginners or professionals, can now mirror top-performing trading strategies with full control of their positions,” the company commented.

Some time ago, SquaredFinancial released a refreshed version of its mobile app, which allows users not only to manage their accounts but also to trade from anywhere.

Shortly before that, the broker also introduced a revamped partnership program and a revamped partners' website. As part of this, it offers up to 70% of spreads and $1,200 per CPA.
