Well, it doesn’t really matter which one we prefer the most. As MQ does not plan to release any new features for MT4, sooner or later we all would have to switch to MT5 or to some alternative platform.

Who wants new features? New features introduce bugs and instability. Now that MT4 is getting bug fixes only, it will just get better.

I won't become a victim of force migration. I would rather ditch Metatrader and move to TradingView. Tradingview should better understand retail client's demand. Metaquote doesn't care because you and i are not their client. (Brokers are their clients).
Good thing is now i don't rely much on indicators as i used to be. It will help the migration easier.

Yes mate,
Theoretically all indicators can be moved from MT4 to MT5. However, this is not a straight forward job as effectively these two are two different programming languages.

...It's technically the same language with the same syntax and quirks, but with different API functions.

2 years old poll. You should update your mind. Many things changed in MT5 since you made poll...

Its evident you didnt understand. Your last capture post shows 45/10. It was almost 2 years ago. Now only have 12 votes more. Then almost all votes were 2 years ago. Evidently things changed a lot since that moment

MT5 sucks , every trader knows it

no matter how you slice it , MetaQuotes hit a major blunder with that crappy piece of software called MT5

you love MT5 , that's fine , keep on trading with it

this Poll is always open and clearly shows that 85 % of Traders prefer MT4 for a lot of reasons that is useless to discus with you

MetaQuotes should just go back to MT4 , add the new timeframes and that would be it , the version that 85% of traders would prefer

now keep your MT5 for yourself and enjoy

Its ok. We will see what you will say when any broker supports MT4 anymore. Because i expect you never use a platform that sucks. While you can continue dreaming...

LOL you see you clearly don't understand

MetaQuotes wants to IMPOSE MT5 against the will of Traders

since the launch of MT5 they have threatened that MT4 would have been discontinued and that no broker would keep on supporting it. But actually Traders who open new accounts with brokers choose MT4 . So if a broker wants to remain in business and survive NEEDS to support MT4 .

So MT4 is still being updated and supported

MT4 is here to stay forever

The power lies in the hands of traders

MQ did same with MT3. Anyway bold sentences shows your clear ignorance about current situation. You can live in your bubble. Nobody care about your needs...
