Mac issue with floating windows for MT5 - page 2

 
Sergey Golubev #:
You can try to move the window by mouse to the right place (I am doing it sometimes when I do not have time to use the way of deleting *.ini file for example).

Well trying to move to the right place is not working obviously. That is the whole prob.

I know one way only (it works for me all the time):


It worked for me to just follow the instructions, thank you Sergey

This works fine, thank you!
 

I had this problem a few times and the instructions above worked BUT >>>> APR 7 2025 !

The old fixes might not work ! might be caused by an update.


Changing all the "docking" to 1 and "floating" to 0 works but i had to edit this file >> metatester.ini

 
drag your undock toolbars from down to up toward menu ( drag and drop) , you need to select undocked menu from inside gray area where tools icon are.

I’ve been working with MQL5 and algorithmic trading for quite a few years now, and I can say that debugging issues like this often comes down to carefully stepping through your logic with Print() statements or using the debugger in MetaEditor. Make sure you’re checking things like order conditions, symbol names (especially if you're running on different brokers), and that your logic isn't getting tripped up by things like IsTradeAllowed() or incorrect time filters.

Also, it helps to isolate the core logic into a test script before integrating it into a full EA. That way, you can verify each part is working as expected.

Feel free to share a snippet..happy to take a look!
