FTMO MetaTrader 5
FTMO MetaTrader 5 (MT5) is the modern evolution of MT4, built for traders who want more power, more precision, and more room to scale. While it was adopted more gradually than MT4 in the retail trading space, MT5 has become a strong choice for systematic and algorithmic traders thanks to features such as Depth of Market (DOM), six pending order types (including stop-limit orders), and a multi-threaded Strategy Tester designed to speed up backtesting and optimisation.
