    Metatrader Types

    Metaquotes has created two types of Metatrader, namely Metatrader 4 (MT4) and Metatrader 5 (MT5) . The interface is similar, but both programs are different platforms and MT5 is not an upgrade from MT4 . Therefore, indicators and robots made for MT4 cannot run on MT5. The following details the differences between the two:

    1. Metatrader 4 platform

    The MT4 platform was first released in 2005 and is specifically designed for forex, futures and CFD trading. Its popularity continues to expand to become the most favorite trading platform used by forex traders in the world.
    Forex traders love MT4, mainly because of their flexibility in adapting to various types of technical indicators and robots made with MQL4 special programming languages. However, a decade later, this platform was considered too rigid and difficult to modify following the latest technological developments. Therefore, Metaquotes released Metatrader 5 as its replacement.
    At the beginning of 2018, Metaquotes stopped selling MT4 licenses and will not release new updates for this trading platform. Going forward, Metaquotes will only implement new functions and improvements in Metatrader 5.

    2. Metatrader 5 platform

    MT5 was released in 2010 in accordance with the latest developments in forex technology. Many people think that MT5 is just the latest version of MT4, because it looks similar. In fact, MT5 is designed to do various things that MT4 cannot do. Among other things, MT5 already has an integrated forex calendar, connected directly to the MQL5 trading signal exchange, and can also be used for trading stocks and commodities. In addition, the programming language for indicators and robots in MT5 uses MQL5 which is different from MT4.
    The majority of forex brokers currently provide MT4 platforms (for old traders) and MT5 (for new traders). Examples of forex brokers that provide MT4 and MT5 platforms include: FBS Broker, XM Broker, Exness, and so on. However, you can also install the Metatrader simulation, if you want to try using it before registering with a broker.
