Like I said before, never trust an OTC broker!

That oanda email, is pure advertisement spam!
From the little I know OTC brokers are 'in general' very closed off to anything open or common.
I guess they like to be in control when they manipulate price feeds.

"besides BMT I've almost never heard of SierraChart on popular forums"
BTM is now futures.io, that should tell you most BMT users are futures trader and not forex.
Also most people on forums, are beginners.

MT4 is the worse trading software but it serves a purpose for OTC brokers, hide the order book and spread.
NT, is the next common step up, but it's very limited and no surprise you get them coming here.
SC, is the "Sherman tank" of trading platform (it's not pretty, but does most things very well) and not suitable for users without experience.

EDIT: it's not pretty, I mean the using & configuration learning curve, I like the minimalistic, win32 UI look.

It's not a popularity contest, especially in the OTC retail space lol
