This looks really awesome!

I've downloaded it and tried to start the "PythonDLL_Example" but it's throwing an error.

"2019.06.22 19:06:44.044    Core 01    1971.05.27 00:00:00   Cannot load 'C:\Users\Nexarius\AppData\Roaming\MetaQuotes\Tester\98EA62F6559EEE0A166E0C782FEEB765\Agent-127.0.0.1-3000\MQL5\Libraries\Roffild\PythonDLL\x64\Release\PythonDLL.dll' [126]"

It can't find the DLL but I think its in the correct place. https://i.imgur.com/3IDxgWA.png

Could anyone help me please?

Python is not only python3.dll, but also its environment that needs to be configured. The most popular and simple solution is to install Anaconda. There is also Miniconda (minimum 200MB), if you clearly know which packages will be needed when running the script.

Thanks a lot :)

Now I have another question.

I'm getting

ERROR: PythonHome == ""

What exactly should I do now?

Set the path to the installed Anaconda when running the script.

Thanks for this. Quick question

on the site under "uploading files to S3": Step 4: (Download the necessary files from the folder “c:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\MetaQuotes\Terminal\Common\Files" to “MetaQuotes/Terminal/Common/Files/”.) For me there were no files under that directory, the folder was empy, or anywhere else I could find on my PC. So in my bucket on AWS I only have the metatester64.exe and all the folders. Were there other MT5 files for you under that directory on your PC? I am missing something? Or is it fine?

In "c:\Users\USER\AppData\Roaming\MetaQuotes\Terminal\Common\Files" the files necessary for the execution of the expert or indicator can be stored. If the expert or indicator does not need any files, then this folder is usually empty. This is normal.

would be greatly appreciated if you'd upload some files to 'iMetaTrade' database, to share with our users!

Are the Instances once connected to MT5 able to pass tests on custom symbols? Or are additional steps required?

AWS testing is no different from local testing. No additional steps are required.
