MQL Auto Trade for MT4 or MT5 on Mac?!

[neil-uk2]

Hi All, 

I hope all is well? 

So, I am looking to get in to Autotrading, with an algorithmic robot which trades for me (and hopefully is consistently profitable). 

I'm a Mac user on MT5 (or could downgrade to MT4), and I wondered if there are any recommendations for a Mac user for something that fits my needs? 

EDITED to add, I KNOW that it's possible to run Parallels on Mac, but I REALLY don't want to! Looking for something that works direct on Mac

Thanks!

Many users, myself included, have found running MT5 (or MT4) on macOS to be tricky due to compatibility issues. One solution that works well is using Windows via Parallels Desktop on your Mac. This setup tends to be stable, allowing you to focus on your trading strategy without worrying about crashes, critical issues or other technical headaches.

In case you are keen to use plain macOS - here is a thread where users manage successfully MT5/Mac

To use MQL auto trading on MT4 or MT5 on Mac, install a Windows emulator like Wine or Parallels. Alternatively, consider using a VPS to run the trading platform.
