@fxfun
Here's a guide how to convert MQL4 to MQL5:

Something I believe we'll leave to Mr FXDreema to enjoy doing.

@fxfun said in MT4>>MT5:

• Using all CPU cores for calculation and backtesting in 64-bit, can make it 500% faster.
• Partial order filling
• More Pending Order Types
• Built-in Economic Calendar (Programmable triggers for news events, I suppose. If Yes = Great.)
• Order Depth.
• Backtesting multi-currencie EAs at the same time etc. Multi-threaded. Multi-currency. Real ticks.
• Better reports.
• More Timeframes (finally).
• More markets, like stock exchanges.
• Native SQL Export.
• Distributed computing (multi server power) etc.

I totally agree with you, I would prefer MT5 over MT4 any day
Couple more pros:

• position netting (at least it suits my particular needs)
• better strategy tester interface
• more reliable backtesting
• ability to use fxdreema's comment block to track variable values while visual testing (i need dis)

I remember the admin saying he hates mt5 because he has to deal with its retarded coding, luckily we users don't
