What is the error you are getting?

Sergey Golubev:

I think - it is better to wait - because of the following:

So, it is etter to wait for Friday when everything (new functions etc) will be described in the documentation with the examples.

Never mind.  It didn't work with python 3.7.  But ok with 3.8.

Can this installation be run on linux?

You can install python inside the wine environment.

MetaTrader 5 Python User Group - how to use Python in Metatrader

MetaQuotes , 2020.03.05 21:03

The new build of the Python library 5.0.25 was released

Please update via: 

pip install --upgrade metatrader5

There is an issue downloading the MetaTrader 5 package using the pip version that comes packaged with python. The workaround is to update pip. The command for updating pip within windows is:  
python -m pip install -U pip

or within the venv using 

(inside virtualenv):easy_install -U pip

That's because you are using `pip` version 20.0.2. The pip that comes with the latest windows python distro is version 19. This is also the version that default with setuptools when using virtual env. Something is broken in those regards. In order to pip install MetaTrader5 on windows you have to have the latest pip, which shouldn't be the case.

The message about updating the pip showing constantly, but this has nothing to do lib installation.

Pls, show error logs. Without seeing the error is difficult to say something.
