R has a great way of collecting data from other sources (eg Yahoo finance etc)
library(quantmod)
getSymbols("YHOO",src="google")
Is there a way of collecting Metatrader 4 into R
eg:
library(*******)
getSymbols("***",period=1hr, src="Metatrader4")
MT4 will discontinue support to platform builds below 1320 Beginning 1 October 2021, they will be no longer be able to connect to their trading accounts.
MT5 is faster and more efficient than MT4, but it doesn't replace the previous platform as it is different and simply offers more than MT4 does. MT5 provides the ability to trade more instruments in almost all financial markets, including Forex, stocks, indices, commodities, and even cryptocurrencies.
The MetaTrader 4 platform is generally free to access. There are no fees or charges for using the platform. However, you are charged some commission by your broker. The amount can vary depending on your broker, you can view it on the 'charges' field.
Give MQL2R a try, it's my new opensource project to allow exactly this
