Autotrading doesnt work as expected with EAs

 

Hi everyone,


I have the problem that my autotrading with EAs isn't working as long as I have Metatrader closed on my PC. 

Only when I start Metatrader again, new orders are executed.

Autotrading is activated globally in Metatrader as well as checked in every EA.

What could be the reason for this? Is it possible that Metatrader deactivates autotrading when it is closed?


Best regards,

Eugen

Of course, you need a VPS, preferably MQL5 VPS to keep your EA trading 24/7 without network or power outages.

Then what computer are you turning off?

If your EA is on VPS properly running, it should run 24/7 without interruptions.
