Disliked{quote} It's not as simple as "adding a module". That's like thinking you can convert a cat into a bird by adding some wing modules. MT4 is a single-threaded app, whereas MT5 is mult-threaded. Totally different architectures. If you aren't a software developer then that probably doesn't mean anything. For sure MetaQuotes should have made MT5 backward compatible with MT4 indicators and EAs-- only G-d knows why they didn't. Probably to save on maintenance -- i.e. having to maintain two different architectures in a single app. I don't think MT4 is...Ignored
Disliked{quote} At least, someone can make an EA (or some other applications) which can receive live tick data feed from MT5. In this way, we can continue to run no longer supported offline MT4 using MT5 live feed. In the end, all we need is tick data from our brokers, isn't it? For trading, we can manually trade using MT5 based on MT4 charting or use MT4-MT5 trade copiers for automation. I bet somebody will make it when MT4 is finally killed by Metaquotes.Ignored

Disliked{quote} To be honest, if anyone is using an MT4 indicator and needs to move it to MT5, it doesn't cost that much to hire a freelancer to move it to MT5. IF you [Not you personally, but the readers of this] can't afford that then obviously the tool isn't very useful.Ignored
DislikedI saw some news event somewhere and I lost it, but Mt4 is going away "who knows for sure" in the summer of 24. I do know Hugosway shut off Mt4 and moved everyone to ticktrader in Nov this year, which looks like mt4 but its clunky garbage. No ea or custom indys. They have a web based chart that looks like tradingview but without any custom indys. I'm not against TV but I don't feel like paying for it and you still need to execute on a phone which does not work for me, or a MT4 chart. Everything I want and need is in MT4 including a few paid for things...Ignored
