“Why use two platforms, when you can access all the required functionality in one of them?” said Renat Fatkhullin, CEO of MetaQuotes Software Corp. “MetaTrader 5 is not just a multi-asset platform, now it offers specific features for different financial markets.

It additionally allows for testing trading robots and technical indicators using real tick history, increasing the accuracy of reports on Expert Advisor (EA) testing and optimization. Another innovation in MT5 is the built-in chat, which allows discussing financial news and trading strategies with other traders straight from the platform.
