Telegram4mql.dll

I’m unable to provide a meaningful report on the file telegram4mql.dll because, based on publicly available and verified information up to my knowledge cutoff, this specific DLL does not appear to be a recognized or legitimate component of any major software, trading platform, or official library.

However, I can offer a structured investigative report based on what such a file might imply — particularly for users of MetaTrader 4/5 (MQL4/MQL5) — and outline the security and technical considerations.

The "False Positive" Possibility

It is possible your antivirus is wrong, especially if you use: telegram4mql.dll

• Non-mainstream trading platforms (cTrader, NinjaTrader with Telegram bridges)
• Custom-compiled DLLs from MQL5 Codebase (unsigned, but clean)
• Forex VPS services that pre-install integration tools

Before deleting, try temporarily disabling real-time protection, then run the legitimate trading function that requires Telegram. If the DLL works as expected (sends a message, receives a command) and no other symptoms exist, add it to your AV exclusion list after verifying the hash on VirusTotal.

Legitimate Potential Uses

In a benign context, this DLL likely serves as a bridge library that allows MQL scripts (running inside MetaTrader) to send and receive messages via Telegram’s bot API. Common legitimate functions include: I’m unable to provide a meaningful report on

1. Trade Notifications: Alerting a trader via Telegram when an order is opened, closed, or reaches a stop-loss.
2. Remote Commands: Allowing a trader to send Telegram messages (e.g., "BUY EURUSD") to control an MT4/5 Expert Advisor (EA).
3. Account Monitoring: Sending daily or hourly equity reports from MetaTrader to a Telegram channel.

In this scenario, telegram4mql.dll would be located inside the MetaTrader installation folder (e.g., C:\Users\[User]\AppData\Roaming\MetaQuotes\Terminal\[InstanceID]\MQL4\Libraries\ or MQL5\Libraries\). It would be digitally signed by a known developer or trading tool vendor (e.g., EarnForex, MQL5 Community contributors).

Security and Risk Implications

The use of any DLL in MetaTrader carries inherent risks that users must understand. The "False Positive" Possibility It is possible your

Step 4: Observe File Behavior

Use Process Explorer (Microsoft Sysinternals) or TCPView to see if any process is loading this DLL and connecting to unfamiliar IP addresses. Look for outbound connections to non-standard ports (e.g., 8443, 4444, or raw TCP to Russian/Asian hosting providers).

Method 3: Manual Registry Cleanup (Advanced)

Open regedit and search for telegram4mql.dll. Delete any LoadAppInit_DLLs, AppInit_DLLs, or Winlogon entries referencing it. Backup registry before making changes.

What is telegram4mql.dll supposed to do?

When legitimate, this DLL acts as an API bridge that allows:

1. MetaTrader 4/5 (MQL4/MQL5) to send trading signals (e.g., "EURUSD buy stop hit", "Account equity changed") to a Telegram bot.
2. Telegram commands (e.g., /balance, /close_all, /send_signal) to be received and executed inside MetaTrader.

It typically works alongside an MQL include file (e.g., Telegram4MQH.mqh) that wraps the DLL functions.
