Do you mean MQL4 code and MQL5 code?

Here are articles about cross plattform EAs: https://www.mql5.com/en/users/iceron/publications

Why cant you add 1 questionnaire line in client/s registration form,from where client have to choose one,either MT4 or MT5,so that latterly every client fall in their appropriate category in your clients list

This is a user's forum not Metaquotes. We users can't do anything.  But some of us use both.

Hi

Maybe this can help you in the right direction.

Use this script AccountInfoString(ACCOUNT_SERVER)

https://www.mql5.com/en/docs/account/accountinfostring

You can use the name of the broker or server to check if your code is running on a MT4 or MT5 terminal. 

Since there will be a difference in servername between a MT4 server or MT5 server.
