   • Prevents excessive notifications by limiting checks to once per second
   • Can be removed by deleting the time check if needed
4. Error Handling:

Common Issues and Solutions

1. No Notifications Received:
   • Verify push notifications are enabled in MT5
   • Check mobile app is properly configured
   • Ensure your broker allows push notifications
2. Missing Trades:
   • Check if the 2-hour history window is sufficient
   • Increase the history window if needed (7200 seconds)
3. Duplicate Notifications:
   • This shouldn't occur due to built-in checks
   • If it happens, verify you're not calling the function multiple times

Best Practices

1. Call this function in your EA's OnTick() function
2. Keep the MetaTrader mobile app installed and configured
3. Test in a demo account first
