FAQ - Frequently Asked Question for MetaTrader 5

You need to open an ATFX live trading account and install the MetaTrader 5 software application that is applicable for your PC or mobile.

MetaTrader 5  is a free platform, and you can download the software for free. However, trading through MT5 might involve costs or fees depending on your chosen broker and products. These costs can include spreads, commissions, and account maintenance fees and are subject to different financial instruments.

The range of historical data on MT5 varies based on the specific instrument and the time frame being examined. For certain instruments, the data can date back as far as 1995.

This occurs because the MT5 platform undergoes a routine daily optimization, followed by a system restart. This process typically happens shortly after 9pm GMT during summer months and around 10pm GMT in winter, although the exact timing can vary and is beyond ATFX control.

 

It’s important to note that this is a common experience across all MT5 providers, although the specific time for this optimization may differ with each provider.
