A Few Tips for First-Time Customers
A proverbial wisdom often attributed to various famous people says: "He who makes no mistakes never makes anything." Unless you consider idleness itself a mistake, this statement is hard to argue with. But you can always analyze the past mistakes (your own and of others) to minimize the number of your future mistakes. We are going to attempt to review possible situations arising when executing jobs in the same-name service.
It will be our aim to make it as objective as possible. Whatever the case, it will represent the point of view of the executing party - a developer. Before we proceed to actual situations, I need to point out the following:

Tips for an Effective Product Presentation on the Market
MetaTrader Market is the largest store of applications for automated trading. It is the very place where developers of trading robots and technical indicators can receive a well deserved reward for their hard work. It is difficult to overestimate the role of a logo, description and screenshots in the success of publishing a product on the Market. If the application has a poor design, potential buyers will simply ignore it. A significant part of purchases takes place because the product logos on the Market showcase.
This article may be usefull for the coders who are tyrng to move from mql4 to mql5 in easy way:
Migrating From MQL4 To MQL5
Many developers have accumulated a lot of indicators and trading strategies written in MQL4. To use them in Metatrader 5, they should be converted to MQL5. It's not so easy to rewrite all programs in MQL5. It would be much easier to convert them, if there were a translation-reference, and better with examples.
In this article I would like to suggest my version of a guide to migrate from MQL4 to MQL5.
Those two links (one is the thread and the other one is the forum rules) may be very usefull especially for newbies:

Australian broker Vantage FX launches MetaTrader 5 with hedging
MetaQuotes Software Corp., 2017.08.02 16:41
The large-scale migration to MetaTrader 5 is gaining momentum in Australia. One of the largest ASIC regulated Australian brokers Vantage FX now offers the next generation multi-asset HFT platform to their clients. Vantage FX representatives point out the ample algorithmic trading features as one of the key product advantages allowing traders to apply trading signals and Expert Advisors in their work. Besides, the broker particularly notes the built-in hedging capabilities.
"In the new platform, MetaQuotes Software has retained and improved all the features that made MetaTrader 4 an excellent tool for Forex trading," says David Bily, the Director of Sales and Marketing at Vantage FX commenting on the MetaTrader 5 launch. "The latest MetaTrader version is important for professional traders since it offers hedging. This is a strong argument in favor of the updated platform. The historically established cooperation between Vantage FX and MetaQuotes Software means that we always remain at the forefront of present-day technologies and innovations providing an advanced product to our traders".
David Bily, Vantage FX
"The natural progression for the retail forex trading community is going to be toward MetaTrader 5", Mr. Bily continues. "As a result, we want to be well positioned early to accommodate our clients’ needs through this shift. The MetaTrader 5 platform looks and feels like MetaTrader 4 but truly is a next generation platform for Vantage FX clients. With the ability to trade forex, commodities and indices markets together, the MetaTrader 5 platform now gives clients the ability to view our liquidity provider’s market depth. Adding the position accounting systems of both netting and hedging, traders on MetaTrader 5 can also maintain full risk management control over their account at all times".
