Cross-Platform Trade Copying

MetaTrader 5 (MT5) to MetaTrader 4 (MT4)

Copying from MetaTrader 5 to MetaTrader 4 suits traders who now trade on MT5 but still hold an MT4 account, such as an older broker account or a prop-firm account that only offers MT4. Every open, change and close on the MT5 master is repeated on the MT4 account. If the MT4 broker names symbols differently (a suffix like EURUSD.m, or GOLD instead of XAUUSD), add the suffix or a symbol alias on the MT4 side.

Copy the other way: MT4 to MT5

Why copy from MetaTrader 5 (MT5) to MetaTrader 4 (MT4)?

The MetaTrader 5 (MT5)-to-MetaTrader 4 (MT4) setup is useful when your execution account, prop account, or client account lives on MetaTrader 4 (MT4), but your strategy, tools, or preferred workflow remain on MetaTrader 5 (MT5). A trade copier removes manual duplication and keeps the destination account synchronized with the master.

How it works

TradeCopier.cloud connects to the MetaTrader 5 (MT5) master and the MetaTrader 4 (MT4) destination, detects each trade event on the master, and forwards the corresponding order updates in real time. Symbol aliases, lot size scaling, and copy filters let you adapt the destination account without changing the master workflow.

Things to consider

MetaTrader 5 (MT5) and MetaTrader 4 (MT4) can differ in order models, minimum size increments, symbol naming, and prop-firm restrictions. Review symbol aliases, lot sizing, and destination-account rules before enabling live copying so mirrored trades remain valid on MetaTrader 4 (MT4).

Frequently asked questions

Can I reverse this setup and copy from MetaTrader 4 (MT4) to MetaTrader 5 (MT5) instead?

Yes. Any supported platform can be configured as the master or the destination in TradeCopier.cloud.

What if MetaTrader 5 (MT5) and MetaTrader 4 (MT4) use different symbol names or minimum sizes?

TradeCopier.cloud provides symbol mapping, lot scaling, and filters so the destination account can match the master account's intent without requiring identical broker settings.

Can one MetaTrader 5 (MT5) master copy to more than one MetaTrader 4 (MT4) destination account?

Yes. A single master can broadcast to multiple destination accounts across the same platform or any mix of supported platforms.
