Add the new Economic Calendar widget to your website for free!
MetaQuotes Software Corp., 2017.06.14 15:30
A month ago we released our economic calendar for fundamental market analysis. Now we have prepared a new widget, that can be used to embed the economic calendar on a website or blog. The new service will help you attract visitors, while providing traders the opportunity to instantly receive up-to-date information about macroeconomic events.
To receive the widget, go to the economic calendar page on MQL5.com and click on the "Add widget to your website" link. Specify the desired width and height of the calendar widget for your site, select the default period of featured events (current day or current week), copy the generated code and insert it to your web page. In the Preview section, you can see how the calendar will be displayed on your site.
For example, here is the embed code for a responsive calendar widget featuring current events weekly:
<!-- Economic Calendar Widget BEGIN -->
<script id="economicCalendarWidget" type="text/javascript" src="https://c.mql5.com/js/widgets/calendar/widget.v1.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
new economicCalendar({ width: "100%", height: "100%", mode: 2 });
</script>
<!-- Economic Calendar Widget END -->
The current calendar version features economic news from the US, Japan and the European Union. News from the United Kingdom will be added soon. Also soon, the new calendar will replace the current one used in the MetaTrader 5 trading platform, so users will be able to receive up-to-date indicator values immediately after their release, as well as access the economic calendar data from MQL5 robots and the strategy tester.
Add the economic calendar to your website and provide traders with a ready-to-use tool for monitoring important macroeconomic events!

mql5 storage
Mohammad Soubra, 2017.02.09 18:12
After the steps of the link
https://www.metatrader5.com/en/metaeditor/help/mql5storage/mql5storage_connect
you have to do:
Working with the Storage
The MQL5 Storage works only with the MQL4/MQL5 folder of the client terminal. All operations with the MQL5 Storage are performed via the context menu of the "Navigator" window and through the context menu of the source code editor:
Using the menu commands you can perform the following actions in the MQL5 Storage:
Getting Started
The storage contains the information as a tree of files. When connecting to the storage, the MetaEditor user reads and writes these files. The user always works with a local copy of data and, if necessary, sends changes to the repository.
Each transaction of changes is recorded in the storage journal, and later the user can view when, by whom and what files were changed. A certain revision number corresponds to each transaction of changes. A revision is a state of the storage at a point of time. Each time you send changes, a new revision is created (its number is increased) in the storage. Based on the revision number, the storage determines the state of data and merges them. The user can also update the local data copy to a selected revision or revert to any revision.
To begin to work with data in the MQL5 Storage, you must associate a local data folder with the appropriate folder in the storage. This can be done in two ways:
The top directory in the hierarchy, which is bound to the storage, is a root directory. You work with the repository only within this directory. It is not necessary to bind the top directory /MQL4 or /MQL5 to the storage. Any subdirectory within /MQL5 or /MQL4 can be root. You can have several root directories, for example, /MQL5/Experts and /MQL5/Images.
Adding to the Repository
To add a folder or file in the repository, select it and execute the +
Add to Storage" command. This will bring up a dialog box showing the list of folders and files to be added.
Files are added locally. To send changes to the repository, execute the

Freelance, Market and Signals minimum prices rise to 30 USD from July 15th 2017
MetaQuotes Software Corp., 2017.06.20 09:41
The popularity and turnover of mql5.com paid services keeps growing, which is undoubtedly a positive trend. Traders are willing to pay for goods and services in the MQL5 Freelance, Market and Signals, and the revenue of successful sellers, signal providers and application developers is growing.
While supporting the operation of these services, the MQL5.community payment system has been covering costs associated with commissions on micro-transactions connected with payments for the services. The current minimum price adjustment accounts for the above costs.
From July 15th 2017, the minimum price for a product offered through the Market, a Signal subscription or a Freelance job will be raised to 30 USD.
Changes will not affect current prices for existing Market products and Signal subscriptions. The new minimum price will only be applied to newly created or modified products and signals. The monthly rental fee limitation in the Market and Virtual Hosting services remains at 10 USD. We still do not charge any fee for depositing funds to mql5.com accounts.
We hope that MQL5.community users are clear with the new pricing policy and the reasons for price changes. Thank you for understanding.
Find a Server by the Broker's Name
Another convenient new feature of MetaTrader 5 is adding brokers' servers by their names. With the previous version, you had to contact your broker to find out the IP address of the trade server or download a special client terminal. Now, you simply enter the name of the broker. The system automatically finds the server with the specified name and adds it to the list.

The first wave of Turkish brokers migrating to MetaTrader 5
MetaQuotes Software Corp., 2017.06.26 14:53
The widespread transition of brokers to the multi-asset HFT MetaTrader 5 platform is well under way, also in Turkey. In recent months, several large companies in Turkey announced the launch of the new product for their traders, including the Istanbul broker Info Yatirim. This confirms the interest of the market participants in expanding the range of offered platforms and their desire to provide traders with the most modern tools for trading in financial markets.
"As Info Yatirim, we have been using MetaTrader 4 for almost three years and finally got our MetaTrader 5 three months ago", says Can Alp, founder of Info Yatirim. "MetaTrader 5 allowed us to offer more financial products for our clients. Now, we are able to service not only Forex symbols, but also derivatives with the help of Borsa Istanbul VIOP Gateway. We are excited and expect to service stocks through the MetaTrader 5 platform soon. Since then, the MetaTrader 5 platform works fine without any issues and complaints from our clients. With MetaTrader 5, we can offer our main financial products under one application".
Can Alp, Info Yatirim
"We are expecting to see more brokers preferring MetaTrader 5 platform for their connectivity to Borsa Istanbul, even more so after the equity exchange integration", notes Mehmet Yildiz, CEO of MetaTürk Software. "I believe that the MetaTrader 5 platform will gradually increase its market share in the exchange markets in Turkey and will be ranked first sooner than expected".
