When you "compile" an MQ4 file in MetaEditor, it is transformed into a binary EX4 file. This version is what MT4 actually runs. It is optimized for the machine and stripped of human-friendly comments and variable names.

Let’s assume you found a working decompiler like a Python-based tool. Here is a general workflow:
To understand decompilation, one must first understand the relationship between the two file types involved in MetaTrader 4 development:
EX4 is compiled, bytecode-like binary format executed by the MT4 terminal. The compilation strips comments, renames local variables, optimizes jumps, and removes all original structure.
