Is it possible to trade derivatives on MT5?

[vitorgrohs]

An derivatives module is demonstrated on this page. But in the application this functionality does not exist. Is it possible to build this somehow via MQL5? I would like to put together my derivatives strategies and automate execution.

Yes, but it depends on the broker you are using, that may or may not be proposing them.

The option board can also be activated or deactivated by your broker.

Have a look at that thread that spoke about it: https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/352161 (go down a little and you'll even get linked to another thread in Russian where people are trading options too).
