Python in Enable and Disable MT5 EA

[Foo Voon Chin]

Hi,

Anyone had idea of how do python access to MT5 to enable or disable the EA ??

Thanks

There is a theoretical possibility to use user.dll like:

int main = GetAncestor(WindowHandle(_Symbol, _Period), GA_ROOT);// WindowHandle= mt4 function!!
PostMessageW(main, WM_COMMAND, ???, 0);
Sleep(2000);

But I don't know whether it works and what number must replace the three ???

It's not possible, even on MQL5. All you have with python's library is here; using terminal_info() you could get EA status to organize the semantic of users actions (i.e. ask them to enable on platform).
