Hi phanna,
I've seen users feel strongly about both the FX Trade Station as far as which platform they prefer. As a rule of thumb, I find the FX Trade Station better if you are going to be self-trading and the MT4 paltform better if you plan to use expert advisors for automated trading. The MT4 platform does have more features available on their charts, whereas the FX Trade Station has more trading execution features such as one click execution, partial closing of orders, at best vs. market range orders.
The Account History tab in the MT4 Terminal window will show a history of your trades, but it's always best to verify it against the read only login you will receive with a live account. The read only login is always the statement of record.

At first glance it appears that The Trading Station is more elementary. Is this true? Also, I am not certain as to what is meant by "obtaining a report for MT4 on the Trading Station (which apparently is read only if you trade on MT4)". How does one get a printout?
Please advise me. Thanks.
