MetaQuotes continues to impress us with new features in MetaTrader 5.  As with any major software upgrade, however, there will be a period of time where both MT4 and MT5 will exist and perhaps be supported concurrently by brokers.  One excellent way MetaQuotes has helped manage that overlap is a feature that permits MetaTrader 5 to act as a signal provider for MetaTrader 4 with a little coding in the MQL languages.  This article outlines the process, and it was found on the MQL5 Community website, MQL5.com.  All MT4 users and administrators should be sure to keep up with MT5 news as the platform is adopted by the world’s brokerages.

This edition was harder to make than any of the previous editions. The late release of Strategy Tester and the large number of bugs that surged while making the CEP engine took a lot of time. From this moment, magazine issues will not be monthly anymore, because they will contain a lot of work and updates of past works. This is why, this time we are adding the Forum to the Magazine.

Now back to the CEP engine.

The CEP engine was some of the hardest stuff possible to write in MQL5. It was hard not only for me as programmer, but it had implications over MT5 as well, because the spaghetti data structure that it uses put MetaTrader to the test ; it needed a lot of bug filtering, especially on objects and memory allocations. The code managed to run with minor issues barely on build 270 (yes, already in May), and completely clean on build 271. It’s a long hard code, and I’ll chop it to pieces for commenting. I also left inline comments and Print lines intact to be better understood by readers. The algorithm is quite modified, not the same as the one presented in Anatomy of a Simple CEP Engine .

Vantage FX is pleased to announce that it is one of the first brokers to provide clients with access to the MetaTrader 5 Demo Platform. The MetaTrader 5 trading platform is designed to service customers in Forex, CFD, Futures and Equity markets as well.

One of the main features that makes MetaTrader 5 superior to MetaTrader 4 is its architecture. A set of functions that were previously performed by one server, are logically divided between separate components in the new platform: a trade server; an access server; a history; and backup server. Such an organisation of internal interaction significantly increases the reliability and performance of the system. This translates to increased productivity, improved fault tolerance, greater stability and faster trade execution.

The MetaTrader 5 Client Terminal is a perfectly equipped trader’s working tool that allows traders to create practically any trading system and actively manage it.  The platform contains all the trading functions a trader will ever need. All types of Orders are supported, with four types of trade Operation Execution available: Instant, Request, Market and Exchange.

For traders preferring to automate their trading, the new MetaTrader 5 platform is perfect. The MT5 script has been condensed and improved to be more accessible and user friendly. MQL5 IDE is a built-in development environment for writing and using EAs, helping traders to automate their trading strategies or write their own technical indicators.

In MetaTrader 4, clients had the standard M1, M5, M15, M30, H1, H4, D1, W1, MN timeframes, but MetaTrader 5 introduces intermediate timeframes into the mix. Built-in indicators and graphical objects are used for quick analysis of quotes and trade decision-making. In summary, the terminal offers 3 types of charts, 21 timeframes and more than 70 analytical tools.

The terminal provides all the necessary tools needed to ensure full-fledged and flexible trading activities. With such a powerful trading arsenal, one can easily detect trends, various figures, entry-exit points and so much more, at just a click of the mouse.

The new version of the MetaTrader 5 Mobile includes interactive charts. It means that with the new terminal, traders receive enhanced opportunities – in addition to trading, they can conduct visual analysis of the market situation. Charts can be scaled and scrolled, as well as their period can be changed from a minute to a daily timeframe. All these enhanced features are available in the mobile terminal that can be downloaded from AppStore.

Future updates of the MetaTrader 5 Mobile will make it even closer to the desktop terminal. In the upcoming version, analytical tools will be included in the Mobile Terminal to provide even more opportunities to traders.

If you are using an older version of the MetaTrader 5 for iPhone, please update it via iTunes.
