Help! Errors on Futures with AMP MT5 Terminal!

[zachariahstillwater]

Hi, I have been building strategies and launching them successfully in MT5 using CFD brokers.  I'm now building for the Futures market.  I downloaded AMP Futures version of MT5. It says Version 5.00 build 5836

I'm getting weird errors with some strategies having the wrong magic number in the trade history tab.  Each EA has it's own magic number.  The comment I think is correct ( not actually entirely sure since this is new ).

I launched the installer and then copy/pasted the folder to make more terminals. I was instructed to make a shortcut on the new folder and add in /portable at the end of the string.  Is this correct for making new terminals?

I also am seeing weird money management issues where some strategies will risk way more than the set amount. I haven't had this problem before with CFDs, but this is futures.

Any help is appreciated.  Here are some screenshots showing the magic number in the strategies are different for each one and the magic number is different on the results page.

I contacted AMP Futures and they sent me here.

Based on a previous post of a Forum Modertator, which I cannot find at this time, there is no proper substitute for a fresh install of MT5. Therefore, the solution is to run the installer once for each terminal that you... install.

Depending on the folder level that you need to copy between terminals, you should copy your MQL5 folder into each additional terminal's Data Folder, or selectively copy your Experts, Indicators, etc. folders individually if you prefer.
