How To Convert EX4 to EX5

general-discussion

Hey guys, I’ve got an MT4 HFT EA that’s showing strong results on an IC Markets demo account, and I'm looking to move it over to MT5. Does anyone have a solid MT5 version that performs well on IC Markets? Having the source code (MQL5) included would be awesome. Thanks for any leads!How To Convert EX4 to EX5

I can convert EX4 to EX5 if you have the source code.

That’s relatively easy; I can guide you through the process if you’d like. There are a few things you need to know before running your EA in a backtest—specifically, the use of real tick data, ideally covering a period from 2019 onwards. Also, keep in mind that only a few brokers are suitable; for instance, the number of ticks generated per second is a critical factor, as EAs can be highly sensitive to this. That’s why many people use IC Markets, though Darwinex is another option. Before you go ahead with the conversion, let me know if you need any guidance—I’d be happy to help you out, free of charge.
