Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about getting started
Is the MT5 Expert Advisor free?
Yes, the TradeLog 3-in-1 EA is completely free and included with every TradeLog plan. You can download the compiled .ex5 file directly from your dashboard.
Does the EA work with MT5 hedging and netting accounts?
Yes. The EA automatically detects your account mode and correctly handles both hedging (multiple positions per symbol) and netting (single aggregated position per symbol) configurations.
Will the EA slow down my MetaTrader 5 terminal?
No. The EA is lightweight and only sends data when a trade event occurs (open, modify, or close). It does not run continuous loops or heavy calculations, so your charting and execution speed remain unaffected.
Can I use the EA on multiple MT5 charts at the same time?
You only need the EA attached to one chart per MT5 terminal. It monitors all trades across all symbols in that account, regardless of which chart it is placed on.
What happens if my internet disconnects while trading?
Any trades executed while offline will be synced automatically once your connection is restored and the EA reconnects. No trades are lost.
