Metatrader 5 broker with symbols from all around the world

Hello!
Could anyone point me to a good provider of as many different symbols as possible in MT5?
I particularly interested in
1. Forex data,
2. Stock Exchange DAX, SP500, FTSE, Toronto Stock Exchange Index
3. Commodities. Energy, Metals
4. Stocks and Futures


Thank you!

here are some I found so far
http://www.ironfx.com/en/trading-platform/mt5 World Indexes
http://www.liteforex.com/downloads/mt5/Russian Shares

Would be good to combine data feeds from those brokers in one terminal. Is that possible at all in MT5?
Thank you!

Anyone???
I would also like to use economic calendar feature. It seems that most brokers disable this on their MT5 installations.

.
Probably easy to find all the brokers that offer mt5. Not that many
as mt5 never made it since launch, and probably never will become
mainstream use.

Finding the Brokers, then would be easy to find out the instruments as should
be the same instruments offered in mt4+other platforms combined.

I assume the data feed would be the same they feed their mt4. Most likely
the feed has to do with the type of account a client have instead of platform.

Thank you! It seems to me I finally found out the way to look for the info I needed, lots of brokers with MT5 I've already found but no economic calendar yet. Will keep looking nevetheless

Which terminal in your opinion suits the best for mainstream use?

.
By far the mainstream platform being used for retail forex trading is mt4.
For forex I use only mt4 and Jforex.

But for other non-forex instruments other platforms suit better. Do not
know which is most used out of the dozen out there.

Reading Data feeds from several mt4 from different Brokers has been done for a long time.
All arbitrage software does that. But other non-forex instrument are not found much in mt4.

Maybe mentioning what you have in mind helps to point in the right direction.

You are right MT4 is the current mainstream ))
What I need is a powerful tool for strategy testing. MQL5 with its' OOP features suits me just right, though I haven't got a chance to look at other platforms may be they too provide Object Oriented Programming for script writing.
For example, I would like to create a script that looks for some similarities on a given chart, take a screenshot of those similarities on a different scale (let say, template is found on D1, screenshot is taken on H1). Then I would also like "trade from the chart feature", one click trading (open, close positions with a single click, SL, TP moving on a chart). Ability to see on a chart upcoming fundamental events would also be very welcomed. The last but not least is symbol sets:
I need for trading:
FOREX
Futures (SP500, RTS, DAX, EU50, OIL, GOLD )
All those things are implemented in MT5, but as you absolutely right said MT5 is not very popular amongst brokers, so probably you could point me to an alternative platform that offer the same features or even more.
Thanks!

.
As probably all the futures you need are found in mt4 brokers, why don't you code as you wish with the mql5 features
and execute in mt4 Broker.

You could code the bridge or they already available in the market quite inexpensive.

That is what I basically do.
The reason for original post was a wish for better workplace organization (no need for extra installation, switching between applications etc.).
And I forgot to mention that Cloud feature of MT5, really cool in my opinion as it allows you to write and run a code on any machine with MT5 terminal.
That a pity MT5 is not gathering much popularity. Frankly I don't understand why

The main reason is that it was written with US restrictions built in like FIFO etc...

Could you please tell me a little bit more about the topic. What is FIFO?
Does that mean MT5 is not supported by any american based broker?
Besides, they say MT5 recetly was certified by CME http://www.metaquotes.net/en/metatrader5/news/3956 , is that possible with MT5 not supportin FIFO standarts?
Thank you!

FIFO (first in, first out) from accounting lingo for inventory.
In forex mean that your first purchase of the same currency needs to be sold first.
That restriction does mess up some strategies.

But it is the opposite, mt5 does comply with that USA rule and it is built in. The platform
does just fine for CME instruments. But no other country in the world has that rule for forex.
Most American forex traders think the rule stinks but they are stuck with it.
So, having that restriction is one of the reasons the rest of the world is not to crazy about mt5.

Plus, think that most traders are not programmer oriented like you, and for mt4 you can find almost everything already coded
for free or very reasonable price due to the large community available.

J.

Do you imply that merging of the positions it is FIFO? When you buy let say 1 lot and then another 1 lot in mt4 you have 2 positions open and in mt5 that is 1 position of 2 lots

.
merging positions is related to another dumb USA rule , the "no hedging" rule.
Meaning you can not be long and short in same pair. If you have 1 lot long and add another lot long, then the platform
merge them to 1 position of 2 lots... but if after you place a short of one lot, then the platform net it and you have 1 long again.

J.

Okay, I've got it. Thank you!

Hello,
Returning to above discussion, can anybody suggest a MT5 broker who is based in US/works with US residents. I'm receiving a lot of rejection when I state that I'm US resident.

I am also searching for MT5 CME brokers.
Didn't find any.

If not I will have to move all my strategies do EasyLanguage.
At least EasyLanguage is really easy and fast!
Maybe I should just forget about MT5.

But if anyone found a good broker, please, let me know!

If any of those brokers use MT5 it would be sweet:
