NordFX, a renowned global forex broker, has announced it will discontinue support for outdated versions of the MetaTrader 4 (MT4) and MetaTrader 5 (MT5) trading platforms, effective December 1, 2024. This decision is in line with the latest update from MetaQuotes, the software developer behind these popular platforms, marking a shift towards newer, more advanced versions.
From December 1, only MT4 build 1420 (released on May 24, 2024) and MT5 build 4410 (released on June 21, 2024) will be supported. Users operating earlier builds will lose access to NordFX servers unless they upgrade their software. To ensure uninterrupted trading, NordFX strongly advises all clients to update their platforms to the most recent versions.
NordFX highlighted that upgrading is vital to benefit from improved platform stability and performance. Each software update introduces technical enhancements that boost overall functionality and prevent potential issues caused by outdated versions, ultimately providing traders with a smoother, more efficient trading experience.
Traders can check their current version by navigating to the Help > About section of their MetaTrader application. If necessary, they can download the latest builds of MT4 and MT5 directly from the NordFX website.
MetaQuotes originally announced this transition on October 22, 2024, explaining that older platform versions would no longer be supported beyond December. This move is part of MetaQuotes’ broader strategy to promote the use of more secure, feature-rich versions that offer an enhanced user experience.
For NordFX clients, staying up to date with the latest platform versions is essential to maintaining access to their trading accounts and benefiting from the newest technical improvements. The broker urges traders to act swiftly to avoid any disruptions and continue leveraging the most advanced trading tools.
This step underscores NordFX’s commitment to providing its clients with top-tier trading services. In recent months, the broker has also offered valuable recommendations to help users diversify their crypto portfolios.
