Difference between MT4/MT5 Hedging and Netting
“Netting” and “Hedging”. Which one is better?
Among hundreds of Forex brokers in the world, it is very normal that a Forex broker adopts “Hedging System” for all trading accounts.
On the other hand, it is very rare to find a broker with “Netting System” nowadays.
There are still several Forex brokers which offer you with both account types.
Old, Simple and Limited “Netting system”
Now that the Hedging system is very common, Netting system was often used before the Hedging system became available commonly.
Netting system will simply limit your trading activity in terms of open positions.
As you can only have one open position for one symbol, it makes easier to manage positions in your account too.
If your Forex broker allows you to choose from either the account types, you may decide depending on your trading plan and methods.
