Code in a Real Language.
Why learn a niche language like MQL just to trade? Vertex cTrader Automate runs on C# (.NET) . Use the world's most powerful development tools.
// MQL4 - Proprietary Script
extern int FastMA = 12;
extern int SlowMA = 26;
int OnInit() {
// Limited documentation
// Dead language ecosystem
return INIT_SUCCEEDED;
}
void OnTick() {
double fast = iMA(NULL,0,FastMA,0,
MODE_EMA,PRICE_CLOSE,0);
double slow = iMA(NULL,0,SlowMA,0,
MODE_EMA,PRICE_CLOSE,0);
// Basic functionality only
}C# Advantages

Algorithmic trading & backtesting: Past performance, including backtested, optimised, or simulated results, is not indicative of future results and does not guarantee future performance. Live trading may differ materially due to slippage, latency, liquidity, spreads, commissions, and other market factors. Automated strategies and bots involve a substantial risk of loss. Capital is at risk.
Protection That Never Sleeps.
On legacy platforms, your Trailing Stops live on your PC. If your internet cuts out, your risk management fails. On Vertex cTrader, they live on our Equinix Cloud Servers.
- ✗ Trailing Stop dies with PC
- ✗ Trade runs without protection
- ✗ Potential catastrophic loss
- ✓ Trailing Stop stays active
- ✓ Trade closes at target
- ✓ Capital protected 24/7
