Fintech company MetaQuotes has announced that the updated MetaTrader 5 platform will be released in beta mode on January 23, 2026.

In this version (beta build 5540), the developers have improved ONNX support in MQL5. Models now run significantly faster on GPUs with CUDA support. In addition, support has been added for new flags. The library workflow has been revised: ONNX is now installed only on the first run of a program that uses it, rather than with the platform.

The developers have also refined the rendering of text and analytical objects on charts for the Blend2D engine introduced in the previous update. In addition, this update provides enhancements to trading reports and stability improvements to the Strategy Tester.

The web version of the platform has received several improvements as well. When adjusting stop levels directly on a chart, MT5 users can now see an approximate profit or loss value in monetary terms. The developers have also fixed the display of certain trading data.

MetaQuotes invites all traders to join the testing of the new platform version, evaluate all its features and help developers fix the errors. To update to the new MetaTrader 5 beta build, navigate to Help \ Check Desktop Updates \ Latest Beta Version.

Once this beta testing phase concludes, the final build of MetaTrader 5 will be released.
