MetaTrader 5 Extends Its Lead over MetaTrader 4
Limassol, Cyprus--(Newsfile Corp. - November 4, 2021) - The MetaTrader 5 trading servers' utilization by brokers is increased by a factor of 1.5, compared to the previous platform version ones. According to our latest study, the percent utilization of the MetaTrader 4 servers has dropped to 36.7%. This is an expected dynamic change: back in June 2021, we reported that MetaTrader 5 had become more popular than MetaTrader 4 among brokerage companies, and the trend has been increasing since then.
MetaTrader 5 vs MetaTrader 4
Renat Fatkhullin, CEO of MetaQuotes Ltd, has commented on the new statistics: "This is a logical and predictable result. MetaTrader 5 is a technologically advanced platform which offers the widest possible MetaTrader 5交易平台 opportunities to users, and assists companies in solving business tasks of any complexity level. Furthermore, we expect a complete replacement of MetaTrader 4, amid the rapidly growing popularity of MetaTrader 5."
MetaQuotes' specialists believe that the growth in popularity is mainly due to MetaTrader 5交易平台 the new Pay as You Go model and to a number of important MetaTrader 5 updates, which have been released over the past year.
The most noticeable updates include but are not limited to:
The ability to administer cluster machines directly from the administrator terminal

Multi-Currency Strategy Testing with MetaTrader 5
In Metatrader 5 Strategy Tester you can test an Expert Advisor using different currencies, but you can also automatically test a multi-currency EA without the need of switching the currencies as in MT4.
To test a single currency EA using different currencies you must select the option "All Symbols Selected in Market Watch" in the optimization types selection. You can also select the currencies you want to test in the Market Watch window. In my case, i have MetaTrader 5交易平台 selected the Heiken Ashi Expert from the example EA's folder using 5 different symbols. The input parameters were standard:
Note that for each tested symbol, around 10-15MB of history will be downloaded, so if you have selected a lot of symbols it may take a while.
In the optimization results you can see which currencies have performed the best. So using the "All Symbols Selected in Market Watch" option you can automatically test an EA on many symbols, without the need to do it manually.
One of the big advantages of the new Metatrader 5 strategy tester is the option to backtest multi-currency EA's. This was not possible in MT4. The testing and optimization process of MetaTrader 5交易平台 an multi-currency expert advisor is the same as with other EA's. Metatester 5 will automatically read the code for multiple-symbol testing. The optimization results ad the equity curve will combine all symbols in one result.
To demonstrate the multi-currency EA testing i MetaTrader 5交易平台 have modified the GuruEX03 EA so that it will have 3 currencies. But you can always add more symbols if you want, it's very simple, just copy the code for symbol 4 from previous symbols at the comment "// add more symbols". The EA is a simple moving average crossover trading system. It will enter the market when the slow MA and fast MA are crossed. In the input parameters you can specify all the EA variables. The symbols used in this EA are EURUSD, GBPUSD and USDJPY. You can change them in the line 25-27 of the EA's source code. Download the multi-currency MA crossover EA (.mq5)

In the log file you can see that the testing process has used all 3 symbols:

I am interested to know how Money Management and Risk Management is handled with multi-currency EAs. For example, if a strategy risks 2% of account equity on every trade, it MetaTrader 5交易平台 is important that the strategy knows the total account equity before entering a trade. In order for the strategy to know total account equity at any given point in time, it must keep a running tab of total PnL for all currency pairs being traded. At any given point in time, Account Equity = Initial Capital + Total PnL (for all currency pairs traded). Is this how Money Management and Risk Management is handled for multi-currency EAs?
I should mention that my previous post is regarding how Money Management and Risk Management is handled during during back-testing.MetaTrader 5交易平台
Thanks for sharing your great blog. Really enjoyed reading about your MetaTrader 5交易平台 thoughts and views on this.
Great ! I had not noticed this option. I'll use it now for backtesting my Ichimoku Ultimate EA for Metatrader 5 .
Does the ea need to be "a multicurrency EA" if tested more than one pair of currency?
