Hey @JayBee

I don't have a video but I have the link and step by step if that helps: 

1.     Download MetaTrader 4 from http://www.ig.com/content/dam/publicsites/igcom/mt4/ig4setup.exe

2.     Once downloaded, launch the setup file

3.     The installation will start with an introduction to MT4, click ‘Next’ to proceed

4.     Review the terms and conditions, and click ‘Next’ if you agree to these

5.     Choose the directory on your PC to install MT4 to. From here you can also choose to add a desktop icon and to launch MT4 once the installation is complete. Once satisfied, click Next

6.     MT4 will now start installing

7.     Once complete the platform will open automatically. You can also launch MT4 from your desktop, or via the Start menu.

All the best

and once you have mt4 downloaded and running on your computer click File > Add an Account > Live > Existing account  and enter the login and password you received from IG in the emails.

Thanks for trying to help, I think I have the terminal downloaded properly now. but still not getting a positive result here.   can I not use this with demo maybe? and the "server details" I have no idea where that comes into play

to add a live or demo account click File > Add an Account > highlight demo or live.

Live > Existing account and connect using the logon and password given in emails.

Demo > just click 'new account' and the platform will generate a new login and password.

Both live and demo tabs will be displayed in the Navigator Tab and you can flick back and forward between the 2.

(must check the 'receive newsletter' box when it comes up)

    • Staking is the cornerstone for Network security in proof of stake (pos) and 32 ETH requirement for becoming a validator remain a stumbling block to many potential participants in Eth transition to pos. This was why one analyst recently praised Puffer Finance and claim it could increase participation since users can participate in Ethereum staking with as little as 1 or 2 ETH, especially with the anti-Slashing Technology. I didn’t pay much attention to his analysis since I didn’t have 1 eth to stake during the testnet stage but will this have any impact on eth staking participation?  
    • What caught my eye is their focus on empowering creators in the crypto world. As someone who's always been interested in the creator economy, I'm really curious to see how their MUA7648 protocol works. Apparently, it helps with the "modularization of AI agent assets" and supports unlimited issuance. Not entirely sure what that means in practice, but it sounds promising! Oh, and get this - they're running a trading event with a 500,000 MUA prize pool! 🎁 If you're interested, you need to register first. Trading starts on October 10th at 07:00 UTC. I've been reading up on their ecosystem, and it's pretty comprehensive. They've got MUA Academy for learning, MUA Cantina as a marketplace, MUA Labs for innovation, and something called MUAverse. With over 5,000 certified creators already on board, it seems like they're building a solid community.
    • With the uncertain nature of the market and insignificant airdrop rewards, exploring other strategies is a no brainer. While assessing liquid staking as a valid option, Puffer Finance reward easily appeals for its rewards and flexibility. With Puffer, anyone can benefit from both PoS and restaking earnings. Users can also stake ETH and receive liquid restaking token pufETH which appreciates as validators are added. In addition to its Liquid restaking rewards, PUFFER token's listing on Bitget is imminent providing various earning opportunities including a launchpool, PoolX etc. Puffer Finance has seen an exponential adoption since launch, could this listing and the opportunities it will unlock fast track its adoption?
