Introduction
Apple products have become very popular. MetaQuotes Software Corp. attentively follows the progress of the IT industry and has already released the special mobile applications for iOS-based devices - MetaTrader 4 for iPhone and MetaTrader 5 for iPhone.
In this article, you will find out how to work in MetaTrader 5 via the Apple's popular operating system.
Installing MetaTrader 5
The easiest way to install MetaTrader 5 is download the ready-made MetaTrader5.dmg package from the official website. Install the platform similarly to any other application — drag the platform icon to Applications and wait for the installation to complete.
MetaTrader for MacOS supports the Apple M1 chip and works reliably on any system version including Big Sur.
The installation package is compiled using CrossOver technology. This platform is based on Wine, but unlike other projects and Wine itself, CrossOver is a commercial product. Therefore, its development is much faster: the environment is optimized for better performance of Windows applications, while detected errors are quickly fixed. In contrast to 'pure' Wine, CrossOver has more specialized nature as it is aimed at supporting the most popular office and other Windows applications. Compatibility with these applications is extensively tested and debugged, so they tend to run more stable than in Wine. MetaTrader is now among these applications.
You do not need to have CrossOver on your computer to install MetaTrader 5 from the ready-made DMG package. Accordingly, its use is absolutely free. You do not need to download any additional components or make any complex adjustments. The platform is immediately ready to go after being installed from the package.
