Choose the platform that matches the code
MT4 and MT5 programs are not interchangeable. Use an MQL4 EA with MT4 or an MQL5 EA with MT5, and a trading account created for that platform. A browser or phone can show the account but does not run the desktop EA.
MetaQuotes provides development and testing tools. Installing an EA does not make its logic understandable: you should know its entry, exit, position-size and retry rules before enabling order submission.
Test the rule without information from the future
Separate the data used to choose parameters from data used to evaluate them. Set the rule before examining the evaluation period, and retain failed tests. An attractive curve produced by repeatedly tuning the same history says little about a new period.
Include the spread, commission, swap assumptions and symbol volume increments. For a Hong Kong operator using a session rule, record whether each timestamp is UTC, device time or broker-server time; do not treat those clocks as interchangeable.
Hypothetical calculation
Cost stress test: when the result reverses
Assume 100 trades produce a gross result of USD 80 at the tested volume. At USD 0.60 assumed total cost per trade, the net is USD 20. Increasing the assumption to USD 1.00 changes the net to a USD 20 loss.
These hypothetical figures are not a strategy forecast. They illustrate why a result that depends on a narrow cost estimate needs more scrutiny than its gross profit suggests.
Run a demo forward test with failure cases
- Log the signal, requested order, returned ID and resulting exposure.
- Reject stale data and prevent duplicate orders after a timeout.
- Stop new submissions at a defined exposure or loss threshold.
- Test a terminal restart and reconnect before resuming the EA.
- Keep the means to manage existing positions separately from the bot.
What the forex table contributes
The TradingView forex display below provides market context for currency relationships. It is not an input to these local tools or an execution feed for an EA. Your algorithm must use its own documented data source and account symbols.
CFD trading risk
Leveraged CFDs can cause substantial losses, including the money in your trading account. Margin is not a loss limit, and a stop-loss does not guarantee its execution price.
