If you’re getting a ‘Not Enough Money’ error, check that there’s enough equity in your account to cover the trade you want to place.

  • Right-click on the symbol you wanted to trade from the ‘Market Watch’ window
  • Choose ‘Chart Window’

Alternatively, you can drag-and-drop any symbol directly into the chart window.

It’s pretty easy to add an EA to your terminal, but first you’ll need to download one. We strongly recommend that you download your EAs from the MQL5 site.

To download an EA, you’ll need to create an account on the MQL5 site, or you can download one directly through MT4 or MT5 via the ‘Market’ window.

To add an EA to your terminal, just follow the steps below:

  • Open your MT4 or MT5 client terminal
  • Click ‘File’ from the menu and select ‘Open Data Folder’
  • On MT4, open the ‘MQL4’ folder and then the ‘Experts’ folder. On MT5, open the ‘MQL5’ folder and then the ‘Experts’ folder
  • Place the downloaded .mq4 or .ex4 file into the ‘Experts’ folder
  • Restart your MT4 or MT5 client terminal and you’re ready to go

If you’re getting a ‘Common Error’ message, try logging back in later, as this error usually resolves itself with time. If the error persists, you can try:

  • Closing and restarting your terminal
  • Checking your internet connection
  • Restarting your router

If none of these seem to fix the issue, try temporarily disabling your firewall and antivirus software. Then, try refreshing the server connection by following the steps below:

  • Open your terminal
  • Click ‘Rescan Servers’ to refresh the server list

Finally, if you’re still experiencing the issue:

  • Uninstall and reinstall your terminal
  • Try logging in again

If you’ve downloaded MT4 or MT5 for Mac and want to install indicators, just follow the steps below:

  • Create a new folder on your desktop and put the indicator files there
  • Open your trading terminal
  • Click on ‘File’ and then ‘Open Data Folder’
  • From the ‘Finder’ window, go to your indicator folder and copy the .ex4 files here
  • Go to the ‘Libraries’ folder and copy the .dll files here

If you’re getting a ‘No Connection’ error, there are a few reasons why this could be:

  • Internet connection issues
  • Your computer’s firewall
  • Your antivirus software

First, check that you can access other websites. Then, run an internet speed test by following the steps below:

  • Open your terminal
  • Click ‘Rescan Servers’ to refresh the server list
  • Check your ping (measured in ms) to see how fast the communication is with our servers

If you think the issue is more likely related to your firewall or antivirus software, ensure that the terminal you’re using is added to the exemption list for both.

By enabling one-click trading, you can open positions with a single click. Closing positions, however, still need to be done manually.
