Porting MT5 to cTrader is off the charts (pun intended)

When I migrated my MT4 indicators to MT5, it was a three-week nightmare. In contrast, porting MT5 to cTrader has been seamless. I’m flying through it—identifying old errors and optimizing code as I go.

We often get stuck in our ways and ignore alternatives until an emergency forces our hand. I’m glad I finally took notice.

I’ve already ported seven indicators today, and I’m very happy with this "Gen 1" version of the setup. I’m really enjoying cTrader’s foundation. Because cTrader Automate is built entirely on C# (.NET), it’s robust, modern, and strictly typed. It is significantly easier to write clean, reliable code compared to the sometimes quirky nature of MQL5.

This is peace of mind in the making. For now, I’m strictly porting my existing setup, but I’m looking forward to exploring the full potential of cTrader later.

Best,
