We should also look at the innovation from the point of view of auto-trading.

And everything depends on how quickly DCs will give up MT4.

I wonder, what are the forecasts or expectations on the time of DC's refusal from MT4 - a month or two, a year?

p.s. But the innovation is pleasantly pleasing.

Is it possible that US based broker will accept this feature?
I doubt it, it would go against the FIFO rules. But you would need to ask your broker.
 

how long we have been waiting for this, finally! thanks developers, now it will be much easier to transfer Expert Advisors from mt4 to mt5.

when will the help be updated? there is no description of new functions on the site.

Is this for the period of editing the history of trades, or will there never be 100% compliance?

I think it is not 100% in MT4. For example, if BuyLimit is partially executed.
 

Wow... Unexpected). Yay! There's nothing more to say. :)

I'm with MT4 till the end, each has its own advantages, like Windows 7 and 8, Microsoft didn't kill 7 just because 10 is better in some way. I prefer to combine platforms between each other, for some purposes I use one, for some another.

 
Here is a good article, I read it a couple of times a few years ago, it helped a lot to understand orders, positions, MT5 trades. It would be good to update it taking into account the innovations, so that everything would be in one place.

It's not too early to update it, since Monday it's only been running, it's when brokers start to support it, then you can update it. Appetite comes at mealtime
 
This means start MT4 end?

Let's hope not! I don't think so as there are thousands of brokers out there using MT4 and it would be a massive amount of work to move all customers onto a new platform, as well as their backend. Plus all of the thousands of MT4 products which don't work on MT5. But only MQ know the real answer to that.....
 

What about the commission?

If I have two open positions, one buy, one sell, and close the 'sell' by the 'buy' I have paid twice the commission. But I would have paid only once the commission if I just close the buy, isn't it?

But what if a broker isn't asking for a commission but has increased the spread? Don't I pay the spread twice as well?
