Different brokers, different results, same EA

New comment
 
Hey, this is basically a general question but it's related to EAs. I find that my EA does not work the same way with one broker, Prosperity, versus another, Hugosway. I did program the EA using a Hugosway client in MQL4. Is this a coding issue or are there actual differences between brokers? Thank you for the help!
 
Possible bump? Basically, what I'm asking is are there any differences in terms of coding between different brokers but it's all under the same MQL4 language?

Hey Ron N. 

I came on here, because I'm having trouble with my OrderSend statement. I get an error "4112 - ERR_TRADE_EXPERT_DISABLED_BY_SERVER - Automated trading by Expert Advisors/Scripts disabled by trade server". My brooker is Hugosway, the same as yours. I tried using the MQL4 sample code and that also fails.

Would you mind sharing just your OrderSend line?

Also, besides enabling Auto Trading button and enabling 'allow automated trading" under expert advisors tab did you have to do anything else?

Thank you for your time.

  1. FIFO (US) vs non when closing orders.

  2. You can't move stops (or pending prices) closer to the market than the minimum: MODE_STOPLEVEL * _Point or SymbolInfoInteger(SYMBOL_TRADE_STOPS_LEVEL).

  3. Margin requirements.

  1. If you see repeated error messages before that, you must fix the broken EA.
  2. Otherwise, that has nothing to do with the terminal or your code. Your broker does not allow algorithmic trading.
