This gets asked a lot, e.g. https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/121374. The usual response is "why do you need the EA to unload itself, rather than just keep running but not trade?"

Because a detached EA singals users "EA finished".
In comparison to a script, an EA is updated only if something happens in chart.
Also access to market data is smarter and an EA can also be detached by user.
My question is: what is the problem to provide such a detach function ??
What is the difference between calling deinit initiated from UI and initiated from within script ?

The thread jjc suggested has the solution. It can be done via WinAPI call, read this again -> https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/121374.
