Using Expert Advisors and Automated Trading
Place the .ex4 file in the Experts folder of the MT4 directory. Refresh the Navigator and the EA appears under Expert Advisors. Drag it onto a chart and configure the input parameters. Enable Allow Automated Trading in the EA properties. Our platform supports EAs with no restrictions on trading frequency. Backtest EAs using the Strategy Tester under View. Select the EA, symbol, timeframe, and date range. Run the backtest to evaluate performance before live use.
- Use real ticks or open prices for backtesting
- Monitor the journal for errors during execution
- Ensure your VPS is active if running EAs 24/7
Managing Risk on MT4
Set a fixed stop-loss and take-profit for every trade. Use trailing stops to lock in profits as the market moves. Our company offers negative balance protection for retail clients. Monitor your margin level in the Terminal tab. Keep the margin level above 100 percent to avoid automatic closure. Use a risk-per-trade percentage of 1-2 percent of your account balance. Avoid over-leveraging even with high leverage options.
Leverage and Margin Calculations
Exness allows leverage up to 1:2000 depending on the instrument and account type. For a $100 account, 1:100 leverage gives buying power of $10,000. Calculate margin using this formula: Margin equals Lot Size times Contract Size times Market Price divided by Leverage. For example, 0.1 lot EURUSD at 1.1000 with 1:100 leverage requires $110 margin. Always check the margin requirement before opening a trade.
Troubleshooting Common MT4 Issues
If MT4 fails to connect, check your internet and firewall settings. Allow MT4 through Windows Defender or antivirus software. If the platform shows No Connection, verify the server name in your login. Reinstall MT4 if the software becomes corrupted. Our support team is available 24/7 via live chat. For Pakistan users, local internet providers sometimes block forex IPs. Use a VPN if needed and check local regulations.
