Thanks Clinton

MetaTrader 5 for macOS: ready-made DMG package and CrossOver update

MetaQuotes , 2022.03.28 15:04

You have a very old version of the Crossover kernel, which is relying on the Python 2.7 system package. This package is no longer available in Monterey 12.3

Termination Reason:    Namespace DYLD, Code 1 Library missing
Library not loaded: /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Python
Referenced from: /Applications/MetaTrader 5.app/Contents/MacOS/MetaTrader 5
Reason: tried: '/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/Python' (no such file)

You need to completely uninstall MetaTrader 4/MetaTrader 5 and install it again, downloading the latest DMG packages:

• https://download.mql5.com/cdn/web/metaquotes.software.corp/mt5/MetaTrader5.dmg
• https://download.mql5.com/cdn/web/metaquotes.software.corp/mt4/MetaTrader4.dmg

Everything will work.

Ok I uninstalled, restarted Mac, then downloaded from your message ink and everything worked.

Thanks for that link,

I have another question.

Both myself and my copy have the exact same equity, but I did a buy of 0.03 volume and the copy account only did 0.02 volume.

Why did the same volume not copy over?

I also have a limit order set but its not showing on the copy account?

Why so many weird faults with coping subscribers?

Thanks Clinton

Did you not notice that the maximum deposite used is 95% (or less set by user)?

Pending orders in Signals are not copied. Only when they are triggered.

Time for MetaQuotes to make native Linux and MAC apps and not just depend on wine.

Ok so if I change the 95% to 100% then will the copy volume amount be the exact same volume as my signal volume ?

(Yes I've seen the 95% but did not actually understand what it meant exactly, I thought it meant only to trade 95% of the copy equity then stop)

(Pending orders not copied-ok cool thanks for that info).

This is my first copy subscriber so still figuring out the ropes..

Thanks Clinton

You can't use more than 95%. That was the whole point of my statement. It's the maximum allowed.

So why is it set at max 95% ?

Why can't they set it so that the copy can copy the signal volume the same amount if they both have the same equity?

Just wondering.
