List of things to cause EA to not work properly?

[James d]

So far I got:

1. Broker's execution
2. Slow Internet speed
3. MT5 itself????

I thought to use VPS to solve 1) and 2), but I heard that the mt5 sotware itself is unstable even with strong Internet!??

If this is true my EA could miss a trade...can anyone confirm this?

@James-d
I use MT4 but I think MT5 may be better in terms of backtest and response speed.

@sktsec so u dont think it's possible for mt5 to mess up my EA trade execution?

@James-d If your EA's code is correct, your platform will not mess up. However, you broker can ALWAYS mess things up. That is a more serious concern IMHO.

@l-andorrà oh, thnkx!
