Why doesn't MetaQuotes integrate Renko into MT5 and MT4 ?
This graphical representation is available on all trading platforms except in MetaTrader !
As a result, it is necessary to tweak in order to obtain more or less reliable Renko data.

They told about it long time ago, and they confirmed about it 1 year ago.
