FAQ

Is MT5 an update on MT4?

No, although MT5 looks very similar to MT4, it is a completely different platform with additional features and benefits.

I have used MT4 in the past, will MT5 be easy to learn?

MT5 is very similar to MT4 in functionality including placing orders, setting up charts and using indicators. It will be easy to transition to MT5 if you have used MT4 in the past.

What type of computer do I need to run MT5?

While you can trade using MT5 on your mobile device, a computer may be easier for people that prefer using a mouse. You don't need a super fast or powerful computer or laptop to run MT5, but a laptop made recently that is not in the ultra-low price range for laptops should do the trick.

Is MT5 a 64-bit program?

Yes, MT5 is a true multi-threaded 64-bit platform. This means it runs faster and is more efficient on the CPU than MT4.

Can I still code my indicators and EAs on MT5?

Yes, you can create, edit and compile your code using the MT5’s inbuilt MetaEditor software.

Will MT4 indicators run on MT5?

Unfortunately no. MT5 is not backwards compatible with MT4 indicators or EAs; the programming language has been redesigned and upgraded specifically for MQL5.

Can I hedge my holding positions on MT5?

Yes, you can still open long and short positions, at the same time, in your chosen market. However, you can also switch to “netting mode“, which combines multiple orders into a single trade.

Are MT5 trading order types the same as to MT4?

Yes, but MT5 includes two additional pending orders (buy stop-limit and sell stop-limit).
