{quote} Have you used that EA before? What is it, where can I find it to test? All I see is that it crashes on init trying to load htf data on m5 chart - maybe h4 data not available in terminal cache when EA starts?

Ignored

First of all, thank you for your reply....the EA is not worth testing, also because the indicators used are external.

{quote} OK thanks....for now it's still running on the demo account...everything was fine before yesterday...damn!!!

It was fine, because your MT5 wasn't running when the gap happened.
Or, possibly, because it's MT5, when you open the platform, the data is not there, yet. It needs to be downloaded, which MT5 does automatically, but this works a bit differently than in MT4, so we have a moment when the data isn't available, yet. And that's when this issue can arrise, especially when the data contains a big open gap, like it happened this Monday on market open. The indicators will start calculating on nonexistent data, if they don't have any safeguard against that! It's not any new problem, it has been the same on MT5 for ever. So, it's not associated with the MT5 update!
I have an .mqh header to prevent such things and it simply skips the code when data isn't synchronized, yet:

And, from your posts, I conclude that your EA uses external indicators?
And there is the problem...

Yes, the broker will know, because you can not cheat the broker!
You are using the broker's platform, so there is no way you can hide anything from the broker!
The solution is NOT to hide anything from the broker!
The solution is to understand how the broker and the Market Maker functions, and then for YOU to do what the broker does!

It would be in your log. So, the broker might be able to know from the log.
I don't believe... any broker would care though...about trade copier.
If it's a prop firm...then different story. Go through their rules regarding Copy trading and EA. Chat and email the support.
Get a clear, explicit written response before using any sort of trade copier (local or cloud)

the problem is that other ea also don't work anymore and in these ea there is no code string for the gapup

Your comment is pointless unless I can see the source code and find the reason why it's not working.
Also, what is your confusion?
The EA doesn't need to have any code string for the gap - the EA needs a code string to prevent it form working on non-existent data!
If your EA is working based on data from other indicators, it is most likely using iCustom().
And that is already wrong!
And then, when the EA produces the Access denied error, this blocks the EA from working, and you can't do anything.
You must delete the EA from all the charts it's working on.
Also, you may have to delete/close all the charts this EA was working on.

a friend of mine seems to have found the error and told me that I have to enter the string you see below:
the new MT5 version downloaded last night no longer recognizes the old string...but this is my opinion since I don't understand anything about coding and at 57 years old I have neither the time nor the desire to learn!!
the important thing is that now the ea work at least for now.....I will continue to try them in demo to see if everything is ok

Devi sotituire dentro la funzione void Crea_MagicN()
questa riga

string tempS=IntegerToString(ChartPeriod(0)) + IntegerToString(primoPezzo)+ IntegerToString(secondoPezzo) + IntegerToString(terzoPezzo)+ IntegerToString(quartoPezzo);

con queste:
string a1= IntegerToString(ChartPeriod(0));
string a2= IntegerToString(primoPezzo);
string a3= IntegerToString(secondoPezzo);
string a4= IntegerToString(terzoPezzo);
string a5= IntegerToString(quartoPezzo);
string tempS= "";
StringConcatenate(tempS,a1,a2,a3,a4,a5);

This code does nothing that would produce any errors.
A "string" is just a text, nothing else.
It's not anything to be calculated.
BTW. Why use ChartPeriod(0)???
The period of the current chart is simply PERIOD_CURRENT.
string a1= EnumToString(PERIOD_CURRENT);
Even better is to use a helper function:

Inserted Code

//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
string   Tf_as_string(ENUM_TIMEFRAMES period){
   if(period == PERIOD_CURRENT)  period   = (ENUM_TIMEFRAMES) _Period;
   string   period_xxx  = EnumToString(period);                // PERIOD_XXX
   return StringSubstr(period_xxx, 7);                         // XXX
}
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+

string a1= Tf_as_string(PERIOD_CURRENT);

Also, there really is no need to use StringConcatenate() with modern systems.
Unless there is a specific reason:
StringConcatenate
The function forms a string of passed parameters and returns the size of the formed string. Parameters can be of any type. Number of parameters can't be less than 2 or more than 64.
