Recently, there was a powerful news in the foreign exchange gold futures circle, the world's popular trading platform MetaTrader 4 (MT4) and MetaTrader 5 (MT5) were removed from the Apple App Store on September 23. Users can no longer download the iOS version of MT4 and MT5 from the Apple App Store. The news once triggered an uproar in the trading circle, a time of all kinds of wind, rumors and the truth. In fact, as long as a careful analysis can understand the tortuous reasons, calm response.
It's just been taken down from the Apple store not all over the Internet and certainly not outlawed
Although MT4/5 was removed from the Apple App Store, existing Apple IOS users who have MT4/5 on their phones or tablets will not be affected by normal use, that is, as long as the software is still available on their IOS terminals. Mixed foreign exchange gold futures trading circle people basically everyone has it, there is an IOS terminal has long been used, it can be said that everyone must, the old bird must. It doesn't matter to most users. Just like Didi Taxi was removed from the shelves before, did it affect you to take a taxi? Oh, no.
Quite a number of Android users that is not affected, because the Android platform is not off the shelf, all Android users normally use, Apple store can not download new users, change the Android phone can not be used, it is very simple ah, buy an Android spare machine is not also very good.
As for the PC side, also like Android users, there is no impact, normal use, singing and dancing, all MT4/5 trading as usual, and many professional investors or institutions are necessary for the PC side, all for this group is also no impact.
On the topic of software updates, please, the old version of the software is used to who is willing to update, which time you update the APP is not forced, or the background quietly help you update. Moreover, MT4/5 is already a very mature software.
Of course, many currency investors still have all kinds of questions, such as: "Can I still use MT4/MT5 as usual?" ", "Are my funds safe? ", "Do I have any other trading platform options? "Was the money wasted?" And here wikifx wants to tell you to think too much! The security of funds will not be affected in any way by MT4/MT5. Since funds are not stored in MT4/MT5 but with the respective broker, clients of each broker can still deposit and withdraw funds as usual through the User Center.
Will the exchange stop providing data to MT4/MT5? It is also a rumor that MT4/MT5 is an operating tool, and the various quotation data displayed on the tool comes from the above parties. If a single quotation provider withdraws from the quotation, it will not have a disruptive effect on the market quotation of the relevant product. Whether it is a membership or corporate exchange, it is its obligation to provide quotations to its brokerage members or counter units. As for the customers of brokerage members, which trading terminal to use is their own choice, and there is no relationship between MT4/MT5 and whether it is removed from the Apple App Store!
The current claims that individual exchanges will stop providing quote data to MT4/MT5 are not supported by any relevant authoritative information. As a result, such claims are more speculative.
Will Microsoft block MQL? It's not true! MQL is a computer programming language that can be used to develop a variety of trading strategies on the trading software. As the underlying language of MT4/MT5, the importance of this language is self-evident. Microsoft Windows itself is a highly compatible desktop system, capable of working with and using a wide variety of programming languages. MQL is not only the underlying system language of MT4/MT5, but the news that Microsoft has blocked it is also more like a false rumor.
This false claim is also not supported by any authoritative news, let alone the existence of the so-called relevant overseas English media sources, and wikifx also checked with Meta company, which said that Microsoft's claim of blocking MQL is unfounded.
In summary, MT4/5 was removed by Apple is just a false alarm, its impact is not imagined, but some people hope that it has a great impact, Guo Degang once joked, a cross talk died, the door applauded are peers. At the time of this MT4/5 suffering, more peers took the opportunity to rise to the top and clamored for alternative things.
Tian Yan Jun would like to say that the current trading tools, market software APP market is also mixed, need investors to keep their eyes open, careful choice, remember a purpose, suitable for their own is the best, investors should always conduct their own research to find the most suitable for your personal trading style and objectives MT4/5 platform alternative. Or just buy an Android phone. It doesn't cost much.
