mql5.com
Mostly blocked
15 of the 16 URLs we have a verdict for under mql5.com are blocked in mainland China; 1 are not. The Great Firewall poisons its DNS, silently drops its packets so requests time out and breaks its TLS handshake. 229 tests have been run under this domain since 2018-04-02, the most recent on 2026-07-20.
The two are filtered by different means — an unencrypted request by the address and keywords it carries in the clear, an encrypted one by the server name in its TLS handshake — so one working while the other does not is normal.

About mql5.com and the Great Firewall
15 of the 16 URLs we have a verdict for under mql5.com are blocked in mainland China; 1 are not. The Great Firewall poisons its DNS, silently drops its packets so requests time out and breaks its TLS handshake. 229 tests have been run under this domain since 2018-04-02, the most recent on 2026-07-20.
Plain HTTP and HTTPS differ here: http://mql5.com is intermittent, https://mql5.com is blocked. The two are filtered by different means — an unencrypted request by the address and keywords it carries in the clear, an encrypted one by the server name in its TLS handshake — so one working while the other does not is normal.
A VPN or another circumvention tool routes the request outside mainland China, past the filtering that blocks mql5.com. GreatFire runs GreatFire VPN; the Analyzer also tests the domains of many VPN and proxy providers, so you can check whether one is reachable before relying on it.
