First step is to open an MT4 or MT5 mobile application and sign in to your trading account. To do that you need to download metatrader on your smartphone from your broker or free version of Metatrader download from Metaquotes on your smartphone.

Here are instructions how to download MT4 on smartphone from Metaquote server and create an account.

When you log in the MT4 mobile app then you need to open a chart of the desired symbol.
