Through the comparison of the above two functions, we can clearly know that MT4 supports the warehouse locking function. Orders of the same variety, different directions and different quantities are executed independently, without interference, and multiple orders can exist at the same time. For the same variety, there is always only one MT5, and locking is not allowed. Relatively independent orders can be given flexible operation, and the locking function is also conducive to the capital turnover of small funds. Therefore, it is undoubtedly more convenient for small capital investors to use the MT4 trading platform.

Secondly, these two trading platforms also have different pending orders. There are four common pending orders on MT4 trading platform: buy limit, buy stop, sell limit and sell stop. On the basis of these four pending orders, MT5 trading platform has added two pending orders: buy stop limit and sell stop limit.

Buy Limit: This order placing method is a combination of buy limit and buy limit. As long as we set a price when the market touches this price, it can be achieved, no matter whether the price we want to place an order and the current price are large or small.

Sell Order Limit: This method of placing an order is a combination of sell order limit and sell order limit. As long as we set a price when the market touches this price, it can be achieved, no matter whether the price we want to place an order and the current price are large or small.

MT5 trading platform can provide more financial products. In addition to precious metals, foreign exchange and futures, it can also provide real-time quotation and trading of financial investment products such as stocks and options, and the products traded are more diversified. Secondly, the MT5 trading platform provides more powerful functions. In addition to providing real-time quotation and trading of various investment products, it also provides four zoom modes, 19 line drawing tool, 2 1 trading time chart option, 38 international popular technical indicators and 39 image objects, and the trading function has been significantly improved.

Although MT5 has more advantages than MT4, it is not as stable as MT4, and the historical data capacity only accounts for 10% of MT4. Therefore, it has not been widely used, and the mainstream product of the real-time market trading platform is MT4.
