Metatrader Server see code

 
Hi

I have never seen the MetaTrader server. I was wondering can a broker who is running a server see your expert advisor and see how it is making money or even see the code that you are using?

Trade server can't see your code...

... but the communication between the Server and your Client is encrypted, so we have to take their word for it...

My main question is : Can the brokers copy our ea's from the Experts folder? Ea's are very small programs, and they are memory resident most of the time - that means that Metaquotes is "aware" of the ea's - but can it transmit the ea's back to the brokers ?
No. It is impossible in the MetaTrader platform.

Your expert advisor program (script, custom indicator, library, dll, etc) is YOUR PRIVATE PROPERTY.
 
you could try and verify this by using an http proxy such as Grinder... it will output SSL encypted communication in a DOS box
 

Ok, that looks like something to play with sometime...

Thank you for the reply...
