Is this a Feature or a Failor?

 

I want to run the same EA on a MQ-Demo account in one terminal and on 4 different charts M10, M15, M30 and H1.

But as soon install this EA on one chart it is removed from the other?

here are my helpless attempts to have them all together running in the terminal - this is what the journal log says:

I know: one terminal = one account and one chart = one EA but what is this one terminal = one EA ???????

Is there a checkbox that I missed?


But when I do a right mouse click on the top chart (M10) or any of the other (m15, H1) I see that there is an expert running:


Pretty annoying this new feature!!

:(

 

My MT4 has no issue with 4 chart using same EA:

Please provide a code to reproduce this issue. Or is this happening with any EA ?

Which MT5 build ?

Which MT5 build ?

It is the latest beta-build 1944
 

I guess I have found the reason/problem.

I have been testing heavily and after each single test the terminal opened a new chart window with the EA and its indicators.

Now I was using these chart windows launched by the Tester to start the EA and now as soon as I launch the EA on another 'tester-window' another time the EA is removed from the other 'tester-windwos'.

The confusing part is the the 'tester-windows' look just the same as the others - only the EA is removed.

The window itself is not removed - ok - but then I would expect a hint, why the EA is removed not just "EA removed". How should one know that the 'Tester-windows' are the special ones with a kind of a secret internal communication.

:(

No idea how you did that ? I can add an EA on as much charts automatically open by the Strategy Tester, and the EA are working normally. So these 'Tester-windows' seems just normal window.

Disable your automatic open if you don't like or don't need it.
