I see some positive things and some negative, I will say positive.
1 Easy to learn.
2 good design.
3 easy language codes.
4 Many brokers
5 Thousands of indicators and robots.
I ask to you which may be the negative parts ??
I ask those who have several years worth or justifies use mt4?
What can you recommend, follow or switch to another platform?

MT4 platform, Off Quotes may happen on the MT4 platform in the future due to MT4 technology limitations.
Today try to close a position but did not allow me off quotes.
I Try more than 10 times and could not.

most likely your broker playing games or poor liquidity feed.

Error messages such like, no connection, invalid price, off quotes, when I trying to enter or exit at crucial times.
I change the broker is the same problem.

You let me express my feelings in this forum.

I have many suspicions about MT4. I had very bad experiences.
I think it's unreliable, because many traders comments on the forums
one series anomalies like :
Bridge to enter the market, this is a danger which lends to manipulate the open trade(dealing desk), also to delay the entry.
It is true that the ECN solved the problem of DD ??
How good will be that experts in forex make a clarification on the matter??

cons (to mention a few):
- expensive (i.e. traders have to pay what brokers have to pay to MetaQuotes)
- poor event handling
- no interface to connect applications from the outside
- only one expert per chart, or, in general, expert is tied to chart
- no asynchronous order send
- same interface issues from years ago
- the way it works in general sucks
- designed to scam traders (i.e. virtual dealer plugin)
- "every" broker imposes it onto traders instead of using pro technologies (a.k.a. it's the plague)

pros:
- kind of programmable but then again not really

I think it's very suspicious that an MT4 indicator works on a broker and another broker in the same MT4 indicator does not work. Magic ??
It is the same MT4 for all brokers?
It is manipulated by brokers?
It is open codes MT4 like Linux?
I know that most of you are not interested in this topic, you are creating a desperate strategy MT4.

Why traders seems normal That MT4 indicator work on one broker and another broker not work the same indicator?

Is it foolish question?
maybe I can find an intelligent answer?

Probably a poorly written indicator that has some built in dependency such as a symbol suffix(or not). Nothing to get excited about and certainly not a flaw in MT4.

Poorly written code is the rule, not the exception. Even more so with MQL4.

CodeMeister Hello, I'm your fan of your work and use your indicator.

Why your indicator P 2 M A works in some brokers and other brokers do not?

I already on new updates can not use your MT4 indicator.
Thanks if you can help me.
