FAQs

How does MT5 differ from MT4?

MT5 was developed as an improved and more advanced version of MT4, offering the following additional features and capabilities for traders:

  • Asset classes: MT4 predominantly focuses on Forex pairs and a limited selection of other CFDs. In contrast, MT5 broadens its scope by including forex, stocks, indices, bonds, cryptocurrencies, and commodities.
  • Position hedging: MT4 permits only one position per symbol, whereas MT5 supports multiple positions on the same symbol and simultaneous Buy and Sell positions for hedging.
  • Timeframes: MT4 offers nine timeframes for chart analysis, ranging from one minute to one month. MT5 provides 21 timeframes, affording greater flexibility in analyzing price data, especially beneficial for technical analysis.
  • Technical indicators: MT4 comes with 30 built-in technical indicators for chart analysis. In comparison, MT5 offers a wider selection of 38 built-in technical indicators and 44 graphical tools.
  • Depth of market (DOM) data: MT4 lacks Depth of Market data, while MT5 incorporates this feature, allowing traders to view bid and ask prices at various levels in the order book.
