THE CHART MECHANICSTools & Education
MT4 & MT5 tools

The toolbox

Five tools, each supplied as both an MT4 and an MT5 file. Indicators mark the chart and alert you, so you decide every trade. Expert Advisors place and manage trades within the limits you set.

Which tool fits?

Two questions narrow it down.

Every licence includes the MT4 (.ex4) and MT5 (.ex5) file, a setup guide, updates for that version and email support. Single covers one trading account; Multi covers up to three. Demo and live accounts each count as one account.

How the licence works

Your account numbers are compiled into your copy of the tool. It checks them when it loads and again every hour, using your broker's clock. On any other account it shows "not licensed" and does nothing.

Changing broker or opening a new account? Email us your old and new account numbers and we'll send a re-issued copy. Your licence moves with you.

Platforms
MetaTrader 4 and 5 on a Windows PC or VPS, or on a Mac with MetaTrader's Mac app or Windows in Parallels. An EA only works while MetaTrader is running, so most people use a VPS.
Risk warning. Automated and manual trading can both lose money, including through slippage, gaps, connection problems and software errors. Start with a small risk setting until you know how a tool behaves with your broker. Tools and education only, not financial advice.
