Disable trading programmatically?

New comment
 

I have a indicator which does rule check on trading conditions and gives a "Go" or "No Go". If it gives a "No Go", I want to disable trading by any means in mt5. Is it possible?

thanks
Sach

anyway I was writing that you can disable the "Autotrading" button programatically, I did it in a script in MT4 a while ago

I dunno about MT5 though

If you had read the topic, you would have seen that the OP wanted to disable ALL trading.

That's why your post was deleted, because the OP had already stated that he didn't just want autotrading disabled.
