Detailed comparisons

Explore the costs, features and practical differences that matter for each pair.

MT4 vs MT5: platform features, compatibility and migrationMT5 has more desktop charting tools and a more capable strategy tester. MT4 may still suit you if you rely on an existing MQL4 robot or indicator. Both have free downloads, web trading and mobile apps; switching an automated strategy requires an MT5 version of the code.Read the comparison

Shared scope
  • Software access pricing does not establish the total cost of trading through a broker.
  • These review fields do not identify an edition or version. Check desktop, web and mobile support separately.
  • Counts are reported by rating sites, not verified distinct traders or withdrawals. No total is shown when equally dated records from one source disagree.

Overall ratings use the same composite as the review: available editorial and external evidence, plus trader ratings from the first vote. Facts can vary by country, legal entity, account type, and evaluation plan.

How TraderJury compares

We collect published provider information, regulator records, and trader evidence; then we show missing or uncertain facts instead of filling the gaps.
