About Metaquotes Language Mql4/mql5

MetaQuotes Language (MQL4) was created in 2005 to provide a powerful tool for developing trading robots and technical indicators on the MetaTrader 4 platform. MQL5 followed in 2010, designed for the MetaTrader 5 platform with enhanced features and improved performance. Both languages were developed to facilitate automated trading and advanced market analysis.

Strengths of MQL4/MQL5 include robust support for automated trading, extensive libraries, and integration with MetaTrader platforms. Weaknesses involve a steep learning curve and limited use outside of MetaTrader. Competitors include NinjaScript (NinjaTrader), EasyLanguage (TradeStation), and Pine Script (TradingView).
