Is MT4/MQ4 going away

 

Got an email from my broker on the 22nd containing the below message.... anybody else get an email like this?

MetaQuotes, the company behind the MetaTrader platform, recently informed us that effective Wednesday, October 30, 2013 they will no longer support the Trade Terminal and Trader Toolkit within the MetaTrader platform

 

Well you're the first person I've heard it from.

Try clarifying with your broker that "Trade Terminal" actually means the entire mt4_platform and not something else. Hard to imagine what else it could be tho. Just the way its worded seems fishy. The terminal is the platform, so what does within the meta-trader platform mean?

 

I also have no clue what "Trade Terminal and Trader Toolkit within the MetaTrader platform" means.

I do remember that they are no longer allowing custom things inside the platform (terminal). Like now we have the single click trade:


IBFX introduced something similar IIRC in build 421 or so (called one click.)

I think your references are broker side ones.
