If you handle the risk properly, I don't see why not.

 

@Eleni Anna Branou do you speak greek?

 

Either is “correct.” I recommend: Do not trade multiple currencies in one EA.

  1. You can't use any {MT4: predefined variables, MT5: predefined variables,}
  2. Must poll (not OnTick, unless you use specific indicators)
              The Implementation of a Multi-currency Mode in MetaTrader 5 - MQL5 Articles 18 February 2011
  3. and usually other problems, e.g. A problem with iBarShift - MQL4 programming forum - Page 2
  4. You must handle History {MT4:4066/4073 errors: Download history in MQL4 EA - MQL4 programming forum, MT5: Timeseries and Indicators Access /  Data Access - Reference on algorithmic/automated trading language for MetaTrader 5.}
  5. Code it to trade the chart pair only. Look at the others if you must. Don't assume that Time[i] == iTime(otherPair, TF, i) always use iBarShift.
  6. Then put it on other charts to trade the other pairs. Done.
