Overview
MT4 MT5 Bridge includes an alert system that broadcasts trade events, terminal screenshots, and signals to Telegram groups or channels. Additionally, it features an execution module that reads trading signals from local CSV files, automatically mapping symbols to broker-specific aliases. The software includes risk management settings such as ATR-based stop loss calculation, percentage-based lot sizing, and an emergency stop mechanism that halts trading if specific daily or overall drawdown thresholds are reached.
