Introduction to new zealand dollar
INTRODUCTION TO NEW ZEALAND DOLLAR
According to Wikipedia.org, New Zealand has a 2008 estimated population of around 4.2 million people, which is the first important fact for us to understand for two reasons. Firstly, as New Zealand's domestic market is so small, it must rely heavily on exports to drive economic growth, making the country especially susceptible to growth or decline in the global economy. This is particularly true when looking at the health of its main trading partners, the largest of which is Australia, followed by the United States, and Japan. Secondly, unlike other countries with a larger population, as the population of New Zealand is small, migration of people into and out of the country can have a significant effect on its economy, and therefore the currency. As Kathy Lien points out in her book Day Trading the Currency Market, strong population migration into New Zealand has contributed significantly to the performance of its economy, because as the population increases, so does domestic consumption.
Like Canada and Australia, New Zealand is a country with vast natural resources, making the economy and therefore currency heavily reliant on exports of commodities such as Wool, food and dairy products, wood and paper products. As Australia is the country's main export market and as the Australian Dollar is also heavily influenced by commodity prices, changes in commodity prices can have a particularly potent affect on the New Zealand Dollar. Although this correlation has broken down somewhat in recent months, as you can see from this chart, the NZD/USD and AUD/USD currency pairs are highly correlated as a result of these factors:

Metatrader 5 - asynchronous requests to the server with 1,000 successive transactions in 1 second
Attachment 25344
This is good post which made by MetaQuotes related to the speed of MT5 compare with MT4 for example (the source):
Yes, in MQL4 it has long been available to 8 simultaneous trade orders of the experts. And tt will not be decreased.
It is possible to provide 100-200 trade transactions in the second from 8 parallel experts Under ideal conditions on MT4.
The MT5 even from one expert synchronously and consistently without much straining can make 1000 sales transactions per second. If multiple robots, several thousand transactions per second. If asynchronous methods, it is also several thousand per second.
Here is an example from 1000 successive transactions in 1 second on the MetaTrader 5 server MetaQuotes-Demo:

Economic Calendar: already available on MQL5.com, coming soon in MetaTrader 5
Attachment 27066
Quote:
A new service has been launched on MQL5.com — the
economic calendar tool is intended to provide useful information about macroeconomic events. It is considered a major fundamental market analysis tool developed by MetaQuotes Software on the bases of real-time data collected from public sources.
The current version features economic news from the US, Japan and the European Union. Regardless of the broker used, relevant information is delivered to traders without delays, allowing them to instantaneously react to market events. Soon, the new calendar will replace the current one used in MetaTrader 5, so that users of the multi-asset platform will be able to receive up-to-date indicator values immediately after their release. Moreover, it will be possible to access the economic calendar from MQL5 robots and the strategy tester.
Support for Windows XP/Windows 2003/Windows Vista to be discontinued after 01 October 2017
Quote:
Windows XP was released almost 16 years ago, on 25th of October, 2001. It is now considered to be an outdated operating system. Microsoft stopped supporting this system 3 years ago, because potential hardware capabilities could no longer be realized on Windows XP due to technical limitations.
Being an outdated system, Windows XP features a number of dangerous vulnerabilities, one of which was recently revealed by the WannaCry encryptor. That is why:
The MetaTrader platforms will no longer support Windows XP, Windows 2003 and Windows Vista after 01 October 2017.
Older versions of MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 will continue to work on these systems, but will not be able to receive updates after 01 October 2017. Also, installers will not run on these operating systems.
The minimum required operating system version for running MetaTrader 4/5 will be Windows 7. However, we strongly recommend using the 64-bit versions of Windows 10.

Migrating From MQL4 To MQL5
This article may be usefull for the coders who are tyrng to move from mql4 to mql5 in easy way:
Migrating From MQL4 To MQL5
Quote:
Many developers have accumulated a lot of indicators and trading strategies written in MQL4. To use them in Metatrader 5, they should be converted to MQL5. It's not so easy to rewrite all programs in MQL5. It would be much easier to convert them, if there were a translation-reference, and better with examples.
In this article I would like to suggest my version of a guide to migrate from MQL4 to MQL5.
