MetaTrader 5 (MT5) is the multi-asset successor to MT4, and FxPro offers it with more timeframes, additional order types and Depth of Market. The key difference for Canadian traders is breadth: alongside forex, indices and metals, FxPro's MT5 adds shares CFDs, plus an economic calendar and the MQL5 strategy tester built in. MT5 is not simply a newer MT4 — the two run different programming languages, so EAs are not interchangeable. Choose MT5 if you want a wider instrument range and more analytical tools; choose MT4 if you rely on existing MT4 Expert Advisors.
