That is the way it is. You have to think in terms of 5-7 years at least, because the development and damage cycles of such software are very long.
The timing of the explosive growth has just been missed.
It's not so much about the MT5 client terminal as it is about the integration that is becoming possible at the broker and exchange level, which could lead to lower commissions and better execution in the long term.
Renat has long believed that running several EAs on the same account is nonsense. Manually intervening in EA trading is also idiotic.
For those who want to implement more than one trading logic, they can cram them all into one EA. Renat, have you tried it? Have you really tried it? Wasn't it convenient?
Maybe you can show us how it is convenient to do this on the example of a simple Expert Advisor:
Why don't the developers have any examples that show how easy it is to do? I'm not even talking about implementing in an MT5 EA a situation where a user in MT4 withdraws a copy of the EA from trading. Of course, from Renat's point of view, to do such a thing is idiotic. But there is a real question of the adequacy of platform developers' ideas about the applicability of trading strategies.
This problem has been solved a long time ago. For the warm-up, I use 2 EAs, each with 6 combinations of parameters, for a total of 12 EAs in one robot. Moreover, there is only real code for 2.5 Expert Advisors. Try to do such a thing in MT4.
This problem has been solved a long time ago.
Friendly inter-server interaction of MT5 servers from different brokers is also one of the essential strategic objectives that methaqvotes addresses. I say they have a very smart strategy.
The whole question is whether it was necessary to "make a new garden" for this, rather than take advantage of the ready-made MT4 servers, adapting their functionality for this purpose.
In my opinion, it is obvious that methaquotes, in 5-7 years, will be almost a monopolist in the stock trading software market. They are very competently building a strategy - solving a set of strategic tasks to capture the market. In the next 2-3 years, they will "lick" five; in parallel, they will conduct licensing, certification on exchanges; in parallel, they will morally and psychologically prepare MT5 consumers, both traders and brokers; in parallel, they will develop-stimulate development of applied commercial software, based on MKL5, by free coders through store/work services. All this will lead to an accumulation of critical mass and in 3 years there will be an explosive growth of those who want to work on MT5, especially since the competitors aren't really scratching themselves.
:)))) "MT4 market is a "wild, illiterate, mass" trader. They do not need any side effects, new platform add-ons, - he is looking for ways to join the fabulously fast enrichment - they have a family to feed!!! He needs to master MT4 to finally "flow...", what about MT5????? :)))))
There is no revolutionary driving force: THEY WANT IT, BUT THEY CANNOT! :)))
Ask Microsoft if it was necessary to change the Windows? Maybe it was better to improve 95 indefinitely?
And partial execution of limits and stakes? Manual intervention in the logic of one of the EAs?
The thing is simple, on MT4 it is done in five minutes and is absolutely reliable. Sometimes you don't even need to program anything. Any trading logic can be added and removed by an ordinary user who cannot program at all.
In MT5, this problem is solved in what place? Is it absolutely reliable? Is it convenient for users? So what will make the user and the broker switch from MT4 to MT5?
