What’s inside the Optimisation Performance Package for MT4

Ever since the introduction of MetaTrader 5 (MT5), it has been clear that MT4, albeit a beloved platform of thousands of brokers, is coming to the later stages of its life cycle.

Still, MetaTrader 4 is widely used globally, and because it is not updated anymore, brokers are now faced with the challenge of keeping the platform as optimised and robust as possible.

We’ve already written an article with tips on making the most of your MT4s, and today we have even better news - the release of the new Optimisation Performance Package for MT4.

The new Optimisation Performance Package for MT4 will allow brokers to choose 4 out of 5 plugins and applications that each support and enhance MT4’s performance.

The solutions included in the package are:

The Account blocker prevents server overloads due to Expert Advisors trying to open a trade without sufficient funds available. It does so by blocking users who have exceeded the number of failed attempts to open an order because of insufficient equity.

The Price Feed Analyser manages brokers’ risks during high volatility periods. It monitors and compares price feeds from MT4 client terminals with those from the MT4 platforms connected by the Manager API. Additionally, it stops trading on symbols where the current MT rate is out of range and resumes once the rates stabilise.

The Archivator plugin replaces old orders with one balance operation by each symbol. This reduces the server load and, as a bonus, allows you to view the trading history considerably faster.

The Account archiver deletes and archives trading accounts that weren’t active for a certain period of time. Automation of the process helps brokers save MT4 space while also saving time.

The Daily.dat Decreaser allows brokers to select a time period and archive all transaction history in that period. Archiving helps decrease the size of the MT4 database, and brokers can easily restore the data if needed.

Who is the Optimisation Performance Package for?

• Brokers who continue to operate on MetaTrader 4 platforms.
• Brokers with a growing number of traders and volumes.
• Brokers who would like to make the most of their current infrastructure.
• Brokers who are willing to reduce and avoid unnecessary risks.
• Brokers who are striving for the best performance.
