You are not calculating your risk properly and using a volume that is too large, leading to a Margin Stop-Out. In other words, your risk management is flawed.

I have the same problem, but I think it is user job to take the risk calculation not EA. Especially when the second stage of verification is for gold and my EA is not written for gold.

Hi Guys ,
I have been through the same pain. When I was trying to publish the Ea in mql I got this error. Though I have freemargin check method added in my code 

if(!CheckMoneyForTrade(symbol,lots,type))

     {

      commentText+="Not enough money for trade";

      MessageBox(commentText);

      hasMoney=false;

      return;

     }
before the ordersend

still I got this error. This will appear specially for XAUUSD symbol. There is one cleaver way to get past to it. in your ea input make stoploss and takeprofit pips settings to 0, but add two additional stoploss and takeprofit amount. The later ones close the trades manually when stoploss and takeprofit of your ea reaches some amount. It will pass the validation .

example 

input double STOPLOSS =0; // Stoploss in pips [0:disable]

input double TAKEPROFIT =0; // TakeProfit in pips [0:disable]

input double PROFIT_AMOUNT= 2; // Profit Amount

input double LOSS_AMOUNT= 1; // Loss Amount

  if(PROFIT_AMOUNT>0 && TotalCurrentProfit(Symbol())>PROFIT_AMOUNT)

        {

         CloseAllOrders(Symbol());

        }

      if(LOSS_AMOUNT>0 && TotalCurrentProfit(Symbol())<-LOSS_AMOUNT)

        {

         CloseAllOrders(Symbol());

        }

IMO free margin check would be somewhat misleading when your strategy is opening many trade. it could still be OK to open a trade since you have a free margin but will close all the position if price reverse.

Ea only do what you told them to. If your EA not written for gold but you want to trade it for gold then change the code. You can't expecting the EA to know what you want if you not make them know.
