Frequently Asked Questions

How do I access the old platform that I used to be able to launch in my web browser?

OANDA no longer supports the ability to load the Desktop platform within a web browser. This decision was made because most modern web browsers no longer support the Java technology that the web launcher relied on.

However, the Desktop platform can still be downloaded and launched from your computer using the link next to ‘Other Platforms’.

Do I need an OANDA trading account to sign in and trade forex and CFDs on the web platform?

You will need a Live or Demo trading account to access the OANDA Desktop trading platform. Click here to sign in, or open a trading account.

How can I resize or hide various sections of the platform?

Sections of the platform, like the toolbars, your Rates display, your Account Details, or your Portfolio can be hidden using the small arrow beside each of them. Once hidden, the same arrow can be clicked to bring them back into view. Resizing these sections is not possible at this time.

How do I adjust my preferences for the Web platform?

You can edit your Chart preferences by right clicking on the chart and selecting ‘Properties’. You can edit the list of instruments within your Rates display by clicking on the pencil icon. Other platform preferences like trading defaults or colour schemes are not available at this time.

Why can’t I enter Entry Orders, like on the OANDA Desktop & Mobile platforms?

The OANDA Web platform supports Limit and Stop Orders in place of Entry Orders. However, Entry Orders created on other platforms will still appear within the Web Platform and can be modified from your chart.

What are Limit and Stop Orders?

Limit and Stop Orders can be used to enter the market at a predefined price level.

Limit Orders to buy are placed below the current market price and will trigger when the Ask or Buy price hits or breaches the price level specified. Meanwhile, Limit Orders to sell are placed above the current market price and are triggered when the Bid or Sell price hits or breaches the price level specified.

Stop Orders to buy are placed above the current market price and will trigger when the Ask or Buy price hits or breaches the price level specified. Meanwhile, Stop Orders to sell are placed below the current market price and are triggered when the Bid or Sell price hits or breaches the price level specified.

How do I access my account portal?

The account portal is available via the ‘My Account’ button within the toolbar at the top of your platform.

What is being represented by the % change information shown in the platform?

These percentages represent the amount an instrument has changed within the candle from the current day. Please note that all daily candles within the web platform start/end at 17:00 New York time.

When do the daily candles within the platform start/end?

All daily candles within the web platform start/end at 17:00 New York time. This ensures that there are only 5 daily candles per week instead of 6. This is not configurable at this time.
