mt4 or mt5?

FTMO Trader Scouting
Hey guys! I was just wondering, which one is better: MT4 or MT5? What are the differences?
MT5 is faster and more efficient than MT4, but it doesn't replace the previous platform as it is different and simply offers more than MT4 does. MT5 provides the ability to trade more instruments in almost all financial markets, including Forex, stocks, indices, commodities, and even cryptocurrencies.

You offer me to change mt4 into mt5? Do I then need to switch brokers? How would that affect my prior trades? I apologise; I just want to ensure that nothing will happen to my trades. I've never changed it before.

the ability to trade crypto is Broker dependent, not MT5 dependent.
MT4 is supported by more Brokers than MT5

I completely agree. I'm happy with MT4 right now, but I'm curious if MT5 is suggested by others or not. thanks my friend.

Oh thank you for mentioning that. and yes most of the brokers I saw out there offer MT4 rather than MT5.
