  • the EA has permission to trade;
  • the smiley or status indicator is green;
  • there are no critical errors in the Experts tab;
  • the product panel shows normal status;
  • the product is attached to the correct symbol and timeframe;
  • the settings match the instruction.

✅ Successful Installation Example

A green status means that the Expert Advisor is attached and allowed to work.


Warning: if the smiley or status is red, trading is not allowed or the wrong product/version may be installed. Check AutoTrading, EA permissions, account type and product version.


🔄 How to Update a Purchased Expert Advisor

When the author releases an update, the user can install the update through the Market / Purchased tab.

Before updating, always save your settings.

⚠ Important Before Updating

When updating an Expert Advisor, utility or trading robot, settings can be reset to default values.

Before updating, save your SET file or profile. This protects your configuration and makes it easier to restore settings after the update.

Step Action
1 Save your current EA settings.
2 Open the Market tab in the terminal.
3 Make sure you are logged into the correct MQL5 account.
4 Open the Purchased tab.
5 Click Refresh.
6 If an update is available, click Update.
7 Restart the terminal after updating.
8 Load your saved settings if needed.


🔄 Update Button in Market

MetaTrader Market update button for purchased Expert Advisor

If the update button is visible, you can update the product directly from the terminal.

What if the Update Button Does Not Appear?

If you know that a new version exists but the Update button does not appear:

  • click Refresh in the Purchased tab;
  • restart the terminal;
  • wait until the update appears in the terminal;
  • remove the old product from the terminal and install it again from Market;
  • make sure you are logged into the correct MQL5 account.

Removing and reinstalling a purchased product from the Market does not normally require a new activation if it is done on the same computer and same environment.


🔐 License and Activations

Market products are protected by the MQL5 activation system.

An activation is linked to the computer environment. If the system changes significantly, MetaTrader may require a new activation.

Question Answer
What is one activation? One activation allows the product to run on one computer environment.
Can I use the product in several terminals on the same computer? Yes, after activation on the computer, you can install it in other terminals on the same computer.
Can I copy the product file to another terminal manually? No. Market products must be installed from the Market section of the terminal.
What can consume a new activation? Windows reinstall, hardware change, disk change, VPS change or major system modification.
Who controls activations and purchases? MQL5 Market / MetaQuotes. The seller cannot manually reset activations or change payment history.


Simple rule: to install a purchased product on another terminal or another computer, log into your MQL5 account in that terminal and install the product again from Market / Purchased.

🧾 If You Registered with Google, Facebook or Yahoo

If your MQL5 registration was created through Google, Facebook or Yahoo, the terminal authorization still requires login and password.

Check your MQL5 profile and email. You should use the login and password connected to the MQL5 account that owns the purchase.

If the terminal does not show purchases, the most common reason is that you are logged into another MQL5 account.


🖥 MQL5 VPS and Market Products

You can use Market Expert Advisors on VPS.

The MQL5 VPS service can synchronize your terminal environment to a virtual server close to your broker server. This can help reduce latency and keep the robot running continuously.

VPS Point Meaning
Use a stable VPS Expert Advisors need a terminal running continuously.
Install from Market first The product must be installed and activated in the terminal before migration.
Synchronize correctly After attaching and configuring the EA, migrate the environment to VPS.
Do not use unsupported systems Old Windows systems and 32-bit environments can create Market installation problems.


🍎 macOS and Linux

MetaTrader can be used on macOS or Linux depending on the installation method and current MetaTrader package support.

Possible options:

  • use an official MetaTrader package if available;
  • use Wine-based installation;
  • use Windows in a virtual machine;
  • use a Windows VPS for stable Market products and Expert Advisors.

For trading robots, the most stable environment is usually a clean Windows terminal or VPS.
