Yes, the EA supports copying between MT4 and MT5 terminals in all configurations (MT4>MT4, MT4>MT5, MT5>MT4, MT5>MT5). However, to enable this functionality, you must purchase both the MT4 and MT5 versions of the EA.
What are the recommended specifications for my computer or VPS to copy trades between MT4/5 terminals?
The hardware requirements depend on the number of MT4/5 terminals:
2 terminals: 2 CPU cores, 4 GB RAM.
3-5 terminals: 4 CPU cores, 6 GB RAM.
7-8 terminals: 6 CPU cores, 12 GB RAM.
10-15 terminals: 8 CPU cores, 16 GB RAM.
More than 30 terminals: 16-24 CPU cores, 48-64 GB RAM.
Additional factors to consider:

Disk Space: Allocate 50-100 GB of SSD storage.
Operating System: Use the latest Windows Server version compatible with MT4/5.
What is the maximum number of MT4/5 terminals I can run on a single system?
You can run up to 32 MT4/5 terminals on one computer or VPS due to MetaTrader platform limitations. To go beyond this, you can use multiple user profiles on the same system, but the overall performance depends on your hardware.
Can high-frequency trading (HFT) trades or trades during high-impact news events be copied accurately with trade copiers?
Copying HFT trades or trades during high-impact news events, such as NFP, is not advisable with any trade copier. The extreme volatility, significant slippage, and potential execution delays during these periods make it unlikely for trades on the receiver side to match those on the transmitter side. Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5©, like other copiers, performs best with trades that remain open for at least 4-5 seconds.
Can I use the Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5© on a Mac?
Yes, you can use the EA on a Mac by running it through a Windows emulator like Parallels or Wine. Alternatively, you can set up a Windows VPS to manage your transmitter and receiver accounts.
Are there restrictions on copying trades from MQL5.com signal subscriptions?
MetaQuotes has restricted copying or multiplying trades from MQL5.com signals, making this feature unavailable for any copier. However, the EA can copy trades from other signal or social trading platforms.
Can the Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5© copy trades from read-only accounts?
Yes, trades can be copied from read-only transmitter accounts accessed with an investor password.
What options are available for customizing lot sizes?
The EA provides 16 lot size configurations, including fixed, proportional, and risk-based options. Custom settings like multipliers or fixed lots for specific symbols are also available.
How can I filter trades for copying by magic number, symbol, or comment?
You can configure the EA to include or exclude trades for copying based on magic numbers, symbols, or comments, giving you precise control over the process.
Does the Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5© support scheduling trade copying?
Yes, you can schedule trade copying by day or time, allowing you to pause or resume copying to match your trading preferences.
Can the Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5© manage take profit (TP) and stop loss (SL) levels on copied trades?
Yes, you can choose to copy the transmitter’s TP/SL levels or customize these settings on the receiver side, including virtual TP/SL and risk-reward adjustments.
What is Reverse Copying, and how does it work?
Reverse Copying flips the direction of trades from the transmitter. For instance, a buy trade becomes a sell trade on the receiver, with adjusted TP/SL levels.
Does the Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5© support copying pending orders?
Yes, the EA can copy pending orders to the receiver or copy them only after they are triggered and executed as market trades on the transmitter side.
