“Everything works good except the days it generates a synchronization error between it and AMP Futures causing a trade loss that was not anything to do with my trade.”
“Metatrader 5 is an awesome platform, but AMP futures made it terrible by using the wrong time zone, so that in 1 week, there are 6 daily candlestick bars, and the first daily candle stick is only 1 hour. This totally destroys the chart and make reading inaccurate.”
“The use of the mobile app is what MT5 use is really about and AMP futures provides that. No complaints just the use of OCO orders not being submitted correctly. For example when a take profit and stop loss is set, the orders don’t show up in CQG.”
“Metatrader 5 is an awesome tool that allows to have virtually any indicator ou trading tool, due to its impressive coding language (MQL5, very similar to C), its huge community (you can even pay someone to develop a tool, in case you are not a coder). Also, it`s very robust, never freesing, even on very shaking market. For me, as I trade from Brazil, it`s very good to be able to use the same platform on local and US exchanges, so I believe it can be the same for anyone trading outside US. I a first overview, it can seem too light as a platform, but it extensive possibilities are probably not reach in any other. The is also the expert advisors, for algo simulation (for strategies studies) or actually trading. They work smootly and stable. I had traded with many platforms, for more than 15 years, and since 2017, Metatrader 5 is my prefered one with no chance to change for another. I suggest to give it a serious try, as I did (with several doubts at that moment). You will probably make your choice for it for good. Envoy! Ricardo”
