Hello, I am new here, so I have some silly questions to the community:
1) Is the programming language in Jforex the same like MQL4?
2) If not, so where can I find an manual for programming in JForex?

Early thanks!

1) Correct me if I'm wrong, MQL4 is based on C++ while JForex is an API on Java. They are similar, but not the same.
2) Since JForex is an API and not a new language, you can learn standard Java and then the JForex API to make use of it.

A good Java book is "Head First Java". You can learn the JForex API through the JForex javadoc and the examples in this forum.

Best of luck.
