MT5 AutoTrading Toggle

[Tony Burke]

Hi - what impact does toggling (start/stop) AutoTrading (on your local MT5) have on the EAs running on the VPS?  Thanks.

If you have the EA loaded on your local chart/terminal and you click the Auto Trading button, you will not affect trading on your MQL5 VPS, but you will make your EA trade for 2nd time locally.

Thanks for your reply.  That's what I thought but I couldn't find anything/any documentation that said this.  I wanted to be sure that Auto Trading was enabled on the VPS and the Auto Trading button on the local copy of MT did not effect the VPS instance.

Autotrading is always ON in MQL5 VPS for MT4/MT5 (because this VPS is the copy of your Metatrader in cloud).
