Use this checklist before submitting an order in MT4 Android. Follow the controls shown by your installed app; desktop MT4 and mobile MT5 instructions do not establish which controls are available in MT4 Android.
How do I check an order before submitting it?
Confirm the selected trading account and server, including whether you are using a demo or live account. An order is submitted for the account currently selected in the app.
Open the order-entry screen for the intended symbol. Check the exact instrument name, including any suffix, and whether you intend to place a market order or a pending order.
Check the volume displayed in that order-entry control. Review any Stop Loss and Take Profit values you have entered; do not assume a trade size selected elsewhere has been applied.
Before tapping Buy, Sell or a confirmation control, check the direction and the displayed order details. Do not tap a trading button just to see whether another confirmation screen will appear.
After submitting a request, check its result. Use Trade to review open positions and pending orders, and History to review completed trades. If a result is unclear or an error appears, check the account and message before submitting the same request again.
What should I know about quick-trading controls?
If your installed version provides a quick-trading option, read its on-screen explanation and any terms before enabling it. Follow that app's actual labels; do not apply an activation path from MT5 or desktop MT4 to MT4 Android.
A quick-trading control may submit a request without another confirmation screen. Check its symbol, volume and Buy or Sell direction every time; do not rely on a confirmation dialog to catch an incorrect selection.
If no quick-trading option is shown, use the standard order-entry controls provided by the app. You do not need to change unrelated settings or reinstall the app merely to look for an option mentioned in another platform's guide.
Tapping a trading control can send an order request. Successful execution depends on the market, account and system conditions; a tap alone does not prove that the order was executed.
