Market validation: how to obtain test conditions for "no trading operations"?

New comment
 
Hello. An MT5 EA returns only "there are no trading operations" in automatic Market validation: EURUSD H1, XAUUSD D1, GBPUSD M30 and EURUSD M1 (hedging). There is no detailed Expert journal in the report.

The exact submitted EX5 trades locally on MetaQuotes-Demo, XAUUSD D1, with factory Inputs, real ticks, 20 ms delay, EUR 1000 and leverage 1:100 (2026-09-01 to 2026-09-02, exclusive). Changing only the tester deposit to EUR 100 reproduces zero trades: 27 entry opportunities are skipped because the configured 0.25% risk budget is EUR 0.25, below the calculated EUR 1.70–1.71 SL loss at the symbol minimum of 0.01 lot. History and indicator readiness show no missing-data blocks. This proves a local small-deposit explanation, not the cause of the Market result.

I have read the official publication-check article (2555). I do not want to round volume up beyond the risk budget, remove protections, or add artificial validation-only trades.

Is there a supported way to obtain the actual validator dates, deposit, leverage, symbol specification and Expert journal? If these are unavailable, what is the recommended diagnostic process for distinguishing legitimate risk-budget rejection from absent signals? Service Desk directs technical questions to this forum. Thank you.
 
Update: I completed 96 local diagnostic cases for the two affected EAs using factory Inputs on MetaQuotes-Demo build 6182. The matrix covers EURUSD H1, XAUUSD D1, GBPUSD M30 and EURUSD M1; 2023-02-01 to 2023-07-01 exclusive; EUR 1/10/100/1000 and leverage 1:30/1:100/1:500.

Results were reconciled against native logs and HTML order/deal records:
- 10 cases produced deals.
- 5 stopped at insufficient-margin checks.
- 27 stopped because the minimum admissible volume exceeded the configured risk budget.
- 48 had no qualifying signal/entry level.
- 6 accepted a pending order that was canceled by the existing Friday rule before activation.

Important limitation: the 24 historical XAUUSD cases used MT5's M1-based tick generation fallback, not original real ticks. The separate September 2026 gold baseline trades on real ticks. I am not claiming these local conditions match the hidden validator, or that the cause of the Market failure is established.

I have not increased risk, rounded unsafe lots upward, weakened signal filters, or introduced validation-only trades. Successful local cases demonstrate that request checking, pending placement and deal creation can work with the same EA.

Could MetaQuotes identify the actual dates, initial deposit, leverage, symbol specifications and Input overrides used for a failed validation, or provide its Expert journal? If that is not available through the seller interface, is there a supported escalation route for reviewing legitimate risk/margin rejection without altering the product's intended trading behavior?

Thank you.

There are some more:

  1. Solving Automatic Validation Problems Arising During Product Submission in MQL5 Market - blog post with some code example which should be included to be inside EA.

  2. there are no trading operations - the forum discussion thread; the users are sharing the codes/decision which they used to pass validation sucessfully

I do not think MQ will provide/disclose everything concerning about how to fit EA in strategy tester's validation to pass this validation (means: how to cheat the validator).
Because this validation process is provided to secure the potential buyers, means: there should not be any limitation and EA must trade, and all necessary checking (lot size, deposit side and more) should be inside EA's code.
