New comment
 

Hello, I use Wine and my MT4 on my mac.

I just purchased an EA here, how can I use it on my mac version of MT4?

In options I added my mql5 user e password

and then?

thanks 

 
Unfortunately it is not possible.
 

Check with brokers that offer Mac account. Last I talked to Pepperstone about this they said they didn't know of anyone writing indicators or EAs for MAC operating systems.

You can run a Windows converter like Parallel or some of the others simpler than Boot Strap that will allow you to run MT4 or MT5 on a MAC but the crossover is till not possible on the conversion from MT5 to MT4 or vice versa.

It should be the same principle for MT4

Is it the same on MT4?  I don't have anything running Wine at the moment to check.
 

It's the same on both.

Only self compiled indicators and ea's will work so not the bought ones from market.
