Topic: Exported EA in MT5 not working.

Gi, I'm new here. I hope someone can help me on the issue I encountered. After I generate an EA and exported to MT5, I tried to backtest but it's not working. It's not placing a trade and the equity line is totally flat. Thanks

Re: Exported EA in MT5 not working.

Hi there, there could be many reasons for that, try to check the journal for errors, try testing another ea, you need to specify more details to get help on that.

Hi quantbot, thanks, but I already tried about 10 different EAs and it's all the same. In the journal, there are no errors or warning either.

Can you send the full code here for any strategy?

The code is too long and it says not allowed to post here.

Post your EA, not code.

Re: Exported EA in MT5 not working.

Hello, when I backtest a strategy in MetaTrader 5, the stock line is very different from the software stock line. I loaded all the indicators. Some of the strategies worked, but most of them still don't work properly.

Import your data from MetaTrader to EA Studio.

You will find scripts for exporting data in the Data -> Data import page.

It is better to use MetaTrader 5 because it fetches the data automatically and contains real spreads.
