MetaTrader 4 (MT4) and MetaTrader 5 (MT5) support multiple languages, allowing you to navigate the platform comfortably. If your platform is currently in English and you want to switch to another language, follow these simple steps:
- Launch your MT4 or MT5 trading platform on your computer.
- Click on “View” in the top menu bar.
- Select “Languages” from the dropdown list.
- You will see a list of available languages supported by MetaTrader.
- Click on the language you want to use.
- Restart the platform for the changes to take effect.
Note
- If your desired language is not listed, ensure you have the latest version of MT4/MT5 installed.
- Language settings apply to menus, buttons, and system messages, but not to custom indicators or Expert Advisors unless they were coded for multilingual support.
How to Display Other Languages in MT4/MT5 Mobile
On MT4/MT5 mobile apps, the application language depends on your device’s system language settings. If you would like to change it, you can follow these steps:
- Go to your smartphone’s Settings.
- Navigate to Language & Region (on iOS) or System > Languages & Input (on Android).
- Select your preferred language from the list.
- Confirm the change. Your phone will update its system language.
- Close the MetaTrader app completely.
- Reopen it. The app will automatically display in the language set on your device.
The MT4/MT5 mobile apps do not have an internal language switch option; they follow your phone’s system language.
