The difference is not significant, but MQ's formatting style is undeniably better, and more correct.
Huh. Here we go. The difference is substantial. There's a lot of problems there. The MQ style is unreadable, no one has used it for a long time. Look at the statistics of modern styles - there are 2 main C++ and Java - both substantially better than the MQ style being imposed.
In principle, MQ as a firm that uses Microsoft products and source code in its work could logically use the Microsoft style, but for some reason it doesn't.

In fact, if you use the standard MQ style for a while, you find that it is logical and teaches proper algorithm formation.
But all people for the most part do not want to change their habits - what they have been used to for years - and reject what they are not used to.They are always willing to call it ugly or inconvenient, simply because it is unaccustomed to them.

Everything is fine with python.
And the MQ-style arrangement of braces causes a vomiting reflex, because it's illogical and impairs readability, immediately and many times over.
The MQ-style arrangement of braces, on the other hand, elicits a vomit reflex because it's illogical and impairs readability, immediately and many times over.

The styling is one codestyle, a la K&R, that most programmers are steadily sick of. I have FormatMQL project in VS, I'm linking to the sources I'm going to use tightly and reformatting them to human MS Style.
Gourmands...fuck. Spoiled their stomachs with delicatessen, so it's time to go on MQL diet).
My comment is not a boorish one, but a quite objective opinion of your style, and not just mine.
There are two generally accepted ways of putting curly braces, they are both logical and quite convenient.
But MQ had to show off and create his own style, and then zealously defend it for a long time and say that it is logical and convenient.
But I somehow have never seen a single argument why it is more logical or convenient than the conventional ones.
But the disadvantages are immediately apparent
-- Visually, there are twice as many blocks, half of which are artificial and useless.
-- The main reason for this is inconvenient formatting because of alignment mismatch.
Arguing about tastes is a strange debate. The reflexes some people evoke can also be kept to themselves, as others may well have the opposite 'reflexes'.
But here's the best way to put an end to the perennial debate about tastes - make it possible to customise the style you want. Not one, not two or three, but simply customise or download.

In fact, the MQL style allows us to avoid very simple but annoying misunderstandings, when putting curly brackets - in the MQL style the whole structure is clearly visible, which immediately helps to correctly put conditions if ... else and the like.

But here's the best way to stop the age-old arguments about tastes -- make it possible to customize the style you want. Not one, not two or three, but simply customize or load.
It is the MQL style that avoids very simple but unfortunate misunderstandings about the placement of curly brackets
Here is an example. With standard style, MQ style and clear demonstration of situations when standard style can not avoid the problem and MQ style can.

It absolutely must not be done that way: forum, kodobase must be filled with code in the same design. It's strange to hear that the style can be adjusted in the MetaTrader editor from a man who has been writing for many years, and who still hasn't got into the spirit of MQL.
