Exness
What Exness Terminal is
Exness Terminal is the broker's own browser platform. Exness describes it as web-based, no download; for Exness and MT5-based accounts. You open it from the Personal Area (PA), the client dashboard you get after registration. There is nothing to install.
When people search for "exness web terminal" they often mean either of these:
- Exness Terminal: the Exness-built web platform covered on this page.
- MT WebTerminal: browser-based, MT4 and MT5. It is a different product, made by MetaQuotes. See MT WebTerminal.
Exness Terminal does not support MT4 accounts. If your account is on MT4, use MetaTrader 4, MT WebTerminal or MT4 MultiTerminal, which is Windows only, for MT4 accounts.
Note for some regions: in certain regions MT5 accounts are usable only in MetaTrader 5, not in Exness Terminals. Exness does not name those regions, so if Exness Terminal does not open your MT5 account, check the current condition in your Personal Area or on the official Exness site.
- Symbol: the instrument you trade.
- Order type: a market order fills now; a pending order waits for your price.
- Volume in lots: sets the position size and how much each pip is worth.
- Stop-loss and take-profit: prices at which the position closes by itself; empty or 0 means none.
- Comment: an optional note for your records.
- Bid and ask: you sell at the bid and buy at the ask; the gap between them is the spread.
- Sell and Buy buttons: send the order at once.
Supported browsers
Exness lists these minimum browser versions: minimum macOS Safari 15, Chrome 92, Opera 78, Edge 92, Firefox 104, iOS Safari 16.
Practical points:
- Keep your browser updated. Older builds may load the platform badly or not at all.
- Browser extensions that block scripts or ads can break charts. Try a clean profile if something does not load.
- A stable internet connection matters more here than on desktop software, because everything runs in the page.
Getting in
After you register, Exness creates a real Standard MT5 account and a demo Standard MT5 account. Registration ends like this: create an account with email and password (Google sign-in in certain regions), optional Partner code, confirm you are not a US citizen/resident, click Continue and Exness Terminal opens. So for most new clients, Exness Terminal is the place where they land.
The demo account starts with 10,000 USD (virtual). You can top it up via Set Balance in the Personal Area or Exness Trade app. Using the demo first is a sensible way to learn the order panel without real money. See Demo account and Registration. For signing in safely, see Login. We do not host any login form.
TradingView charts
Charts in Exness Terminal are built on TradingView. Exness states: Exness Terminal and Exness Trade: TradingView charts, 100+ indicators, 50 drawing tools. You can also save chart templates and layouts.
What this means in practice:
- Indicators are calculations drawn on the chart, such as moving averages or RSI.
- Drawing tools let you mark trend lines, levels and zones by hand.
- Timeframes change how much time each candle covers.
If you have used TradingView before, the chart controls will feel familiar. For a general introduction, see TradingView basics and TradingView charts.
The order panel
The order panel is where you set up a trade before sending it. The exact layout can change between platform updates. If a field is not where you expect it, check the current interface in the Exness Help Center. The panel typically holds:
| Field | What it means |
|---|---|
| Instrument | The market you trade, e.g. XAUUSD or a currency pair |
| Volume (lots) | Trade size. The minimum on most instruments is 0.01 lot; some instruments differ |
| Buy / Sell | Buy at the ask price or sell at the bid price |
| Order type | Market (now) or pending (at a chosen price) |
| Stop loss | Price at which a losing position closes automatically |
| Take profit | Price at which a winning position closes automatically |
The spread is the gap between bid and ask. You pay it every time you open a position. Margin is the part of your balance the broker sets aside to keep a leveraged position open. Before you send an order, check the required margin and the value of a pip at your chosen volume. The Calculators page helps with that.
How to open and close a trade
These are the general steps. Exness does not publish a fixed click-by-click sequence, so treat this as a guide to the logic, not exact button names.
Opening a position
- Select the instrument from the instrument list.
- In the order panel, enter the volume in lots.
- Add a stop loss and, if you use one, a take profit.
- Choose a market order or set a pending order price.
- Confirm Buy or Sell.
After that, the position appears in the list of open positions, with its current profit or loss.
Closing a position
- Open the list of open positions.
- Find the position and use its close control. Some platforms also let you close part of the volume.
- Check the result in the closed positions or history view.
Closing the browser tab does not close your positions. They stay open on the server until you close them, your stop loss or take profit triggers, or the account reaches stop out.
Margin call and stop out levels depend on the account: Standard Cent: margin call 60%, stop out 0%; Standard: margin call 60%, stop out 0%; Pro: margin call 30%, stop out 0%; Raw Spread: margin call 30%, stop out 0%; Zero: margin call 30%, stop out 0%. Note that 0% stop out not supported in some countries; may vary. Exness also states that if a stop out would leave the account negative, the balance reset to 0 after stop out.

Risk and the Pakistan context
Leveraged CFD and forex trading can lose money fast. A small price move against you can take a large share of your balance, and on high leverage it happens quickly. Use a stop loss and size positions to your account. See Risk management.
Pakistani readers should also know the official position. Per the SBP, remitting foreign exchange to overseas forex/margin/CFD platforms is not allowed through any payment channel (FERA s.5(1)). Per the SBP, the purchase of offshore forex/margin/CFD products by Pakistani residents violates section 4(1) of FERA 1947. Read Law and regulators before you decide anything.
