The EA will be fully loaded. Now if your broker is not a 0 GMT broker you need to set time shift variable in the EA properties, Enter your broker time shift in the HourShift field, after you press OK twice wait few seconds and the EA should display the correct GMT time on the top right corner of your chart, If time displayed by EA is correct GMT time your setup is completed. HourShift setting is removed after version 410 and the Ea should automatically figure out your gmt offset for each broker you use , your local clock and time zone must be set correctly on your computer in order to work. Also since 410 we  removed setting option of ECN broker, The EA now uses ordering process that works with both types of brokers with no need to set an option by settings.

In order to access EA settings window Right click on chart that has EA on it and Right click anywhere on the chart. 2nd in list you will see Expert advisors > Properties.

Please note that EA will not display anything unless the market is open.

So setup should be done during the week not weekends.

Switch your chart to 1M time frame. Finally restart your Mt4 to insure your changes are saved, because if Mt4 stops or power goes down non of you changes will be found unless Mt4 is exited properly after changes.
Mt4 changes are saved at exit.

EA logoWhen the EA is properly setup it should display Link and current Bid and Ask prices on the bottom left of the chart. Also the correct GMT time on the top right of your chart. as shown.

The entire process is a whole lot easier done than said, for future updates the process is exactly the same like first time setup. The EA will let you know once there is a newer version available for download if you have version 4.04 or later already on your setup. It will let you know by displaying a message for few minutes and another message on your Mt4 journal tab. Please visit our Mt4 Back Testing Website for back testing instructions.

    Can you tell me what leverage I must use when I start trading with $5000, $10000, $15000 and $20000 ?

    • admin says:

      Your default leverage should be 100:1 or 200:1 not much importance here unless it is 50:1 which will eat up your free margin as lots of your deposit will be tucked away for your trades
