Topic: MT5 not adding orders to the EA

MT5 is not adding new orders to EA.
The EA starts with 1 contract  adding to a maximum number of 10 .
While MT4 adds a new order MT5 in parallel does not.

From a previous post I was under the impression that MT5 will not kick a new order but will add  ( or reduce) instead to the already created initial position  but is not doing so.

What could be the cause for it?

Re: MT5 not adding orders to the EA

Adding or reducing positions is a generic operation and do not depend on any indicator. Please test such behaviour by using simple experts with a minimal number of indicators.

If it is true that your expert does not add/reduce on MT5, it must be true for all users and all experts, which is very unlikely.
Please test it again with a simpler expert on M1 chart and a lower entry / adding amount.

There are many reasons for your observations, some of them are:
- you are using hedging MT5 account with FSB Pro experts,
- there are no conditions that require adding/reducing
- there is no enough money in your account.
- there is some execution error
