Metatrader 4 ( http://www.metaquotes.net/ ) do run in Wine but is not fully compatible ie not all function are working. I wish future Wine will enable Metatrader 4 to run properly. Another wish list is for Wine to incorporate a "File Explorer" that will show the "C:\" directory instead of having to work with the complicate Linux directory.

I use a lot of functions in Metatrader and everything working great for me (note that I'm using some native dlls). However, version of Wine I use in my server is pretty old - obviously I can't upgrade it often because of possible regressions in Wine: this isn't acceptable for my particular task (if Wine fail to work properly I may lose real money). In other words I didn't test Metatrader with new Wine. If you describe what exactly doesn't work for you I (probably) can give you advice(s) how to deal with the problem(s). Also don't forget to mention what version of Wine you are using, what build of Metatrader and what native dll(s).
Is there anyone success install Metatrader 4 using Wine? What version of wine do you use? wine 1.1 or 0.9? What linux do you use? uBuntu 8.10 or Centos 5.2 or .... what? Please help me, thanks in advance
Hi there, I have been scouring different forums trying to find an answer as to why am unable to get Ubuntu 8.10 , with wine 1.0.1 to install mfc42.dll . Without it I will never get MT4 to run . I have followed your posts still with no success. Any assistance would be appreciated. The only system on my machine is Ubuntu 8.10 Thanks
Can't upgrade at this time. I've tried all the suggestions I have found. Just can't load mfc42.dll MetaTrader 4 requires this file to be in the C:\windows\system32 directory. My windows directory is blank ! I see no system32 directory !
ok wine was removed and then reinstalled . now what?
Please slow down guys , I'm new to Ubuntu but catching most of what you're saying. Am I to run this from the terminal window ?
what did i leave out ? ****@****-desktop:~$ cp mfc42.dll/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32 cp: missing destination file operand after `mfc42.dll/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32'
What is the command line for winescripts? ****@****-desktop:~$ winetricks vcrun6 bash: winetricks: command not found

All yours questions are answered *multiple* times! But I repeat most important things for you anyway: 1) First you need to install winetricks; to do so run this: wget http://kegel.com/wine/winetricks chmod +x winetricks sudo mv winetricks /usr/bin/ 2) Then install requirements for MetaTrader (gecko is used for HTML rendering): winetricks -q gecko vcrun6 3) Install MetaTrader with Wine and work with it as usually.
Thank you for your assistance.
Hello! Metatrader works fine under wine - that is simply great. But there[ one thing which starts to drive me crazy sometimes. When you point the mouse to the candle (or any object) a tip shows up with info like high-low-close-open. But then i point to the BLANK space and the tip shows up AGAIN. the same last one. It is disturbing. If anyone could help with this matter? Thanks in advance
I found out that comctl32.dll is responsible for tooltips. Simply copying the file from real windowsXp wasnt any help. Then I saw it in winetricks panel and installed - and voila! It works just fine - no tooltips appear where theyre not suppose to appear.

On Ubuntu 8.10 wine 1.14 i try to install metatrader . Failed because was missing mfc42.dll .grrr [Idea] I try to copy and paste mfc42.dl from XP partition in directory C:\windows\system32 to Linux directory system32 in .\wine thinking to do a crazy operation and .. [Shocked] it's works very well now ! .... :P It is no clear for me why this dll is not included in wine installation but .. ok ! Now Metatrader works !
Thanks for data . I wrongly supposed was a standard windows dll. Ok . Anyway I run a Metatrader Standard setup.exe in wine . And this dll was missing after setup . Doing the same in xp dll is loaded ... maybe a wine bug that do not load dll ( assuming metatrader setup has included it ) ?

You probably already had an app installed that had mfc42 installed in system32. Try installing a clean copy of windows, then metatrader. -- -Austin
