Forex Broker with a Mac Platform?

Chris Paciello · Apr 18, 2017

Can anyone recommend a Forex broker with a platform for a Mac?

I was hoping to utilize MT4 but it doesn't seem to work on a Mac unless I partition or use parallels, etc which I do not want to do.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You can get mt4 along with many other windows software working on a mac using wine.

Tickmill offers MT4 for MAC (integrated virtual windows), goes as a separate application.
But still I use parallels with Hotforex and noticed no speed disadvantages or lags so don't see a reason to try anything else.

I've tried the wine method on my Macbook and of course you can get it set up but it lags and has connection problems etc. Wasn't an option.

Yep faced same issues? What about parallels desktop app? Does it ensure better and smoother connection?
