Can you daytrade via Metatrader5.com if you're an independent day trader?

 
Can you day trade via Metatrader5 if you're an independent day trader? And if so, why would you day trade with Metatrader 5 via a different broker, because I saw a lot of posts of people getting scammed by brokers using Metatrader 5.
 
  1. Why not?
  2. You like the interface, or you want to build custom code (indicator or EA) that you can't get elsewhere.
  3. Broker discussions are forbidden. Do your own due diligence. Just because a broker allows MTx means nothing except that broker allows MTx.
