FAQ
Is MT5 an update on MT4?
No, although MT5 looks very similar to MT4, it is a completely different platform with additional features and benefits.
I have used MT4 in the past, will MT5 be easy to learn?
MT5 is very similar to MT4 in functionality including placing orders, setting up charts and using indicators. It will be easy to transition to MT5 if you have used MT4 in the past.
What type of computer do I need to run MT5?
While you can trade using MT5 on your mobile device, a computer may be easier for people that prefer using a mouse. You don't need a super fast or powerful computer or laptop to run MT5, but a laptop made recently that is not in the ultra-low price range for laptops should do the trick.
