Test the Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5© with a Free Demo

Start by downloading the free demo versions using these links:  MT4  or  MT5

Next, place the downloaded files in your MT4/5 by navigating to: File >> Open Data Folder >> MQL4/5 >> Experts, then restart your terminal.

Watch the quick setup video below, and follow the same steps in your demo accounts to test out the Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5© before purchasing. The demo version is fully functional for up to 4 hours at a time on demo accounts only. To reset the trial period, go to MT4/5 >> Tools >> Global Variables >> Ctrl + A >> Delete. Please only perform this reset on non-critical demo accounts and avoid using it on challenge prop firm accounts.


Installing Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5© for the First Time


Begin by installing your Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5© in all MT4/5 terminals intended as transmitters and receivers, following the complete installation guide below from step 6. 

For MQL5.com Market purchases, ensure installation through your MQL5 account in each MT4/5 terminal—copied ex4/5 files won’t function.


To proceed, you’ll need two terminals: one for the transmitter account and another for the receiver. 

Downloading the MT4/5 terminal directly from your broker’s website is highly recommended for accuracy. Using an MT4/5 terminal from a different broker might cause symbols to mismatch. 

If you’re unsure about installing a second MT4/5 terminal of the same broker on your system, please watch the GIF below, ensuring each terminal has a unique folder path.


How to install a second MT4/5 terminal from the same broker on your computer or VPS

To set up the connection between the transmitter and receiver terminals, follow the quick setup video below. For brokers using symbol suffixes (e.g., EURUSD.r or EURUSD+), refer to the second part of the video (at 1:15) to configure them.

For example, if your transmitter account has EURUSD.r and the receiver has EURUSD+, enter these suffixes in the receiver’s settings:

Suffix of the Transmitter Account: .r

Suffix of the Receiver Account: +

If symbols for indices or other instruments differ across brokers, use the Special Symbol setup. For instance, for a transmitter symbol US500 and a receiver symbol SPX500, enter:

Special Symbol 1: US500,SPX500



If copying isn’t successful, check the Experts tab on your receiver terminal for error messages.

If you're planning to apply the Self Copier to scale up lot sizes within the same trading account, access the Inputs tab of Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5© and set the Account Mode to: Self Copier

15. To copy trades between accounts across local MT4/5 terminals on a Windows computer or VPS, set Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5© to Transmitter or Receiver mode in the Account Mode field. Transmitters don’t need input in the Transmitter Account Number field, but Receiver accounts require the Transmitter’s account number, with multiple Transmitter accounts separated by commas, such as: 123456,654321. 

Attach Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5© to each terminal you want to copy trades from or to, designating the terminal’s role as either Transmitter or Receiver.


16. In Lot Size Management, select how you’d like trades to be copied to the Receiver account.

If None is selected, Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5© will not copy any transmitter trades.

If Same Lot Size is selected, Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5© will copy the receiver trades with the same lot size as the original transmitter trades.

If Fixed is selected, Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5© will copy the transmitter trades onto the receiver account(s) with a fixed lot size as per below Fixed Lot Size setting.

If Multiplier is selected, Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5© will use the below Multiplier setting for copying transmitter trades onto the receiver account(s).

If Multiplier by Balance is selected, Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5© will use the below Multiplier by Balance setting for calculating the multiplier that will be used for the receiver copied trades as follows. If the receiver account balance is $10000 and the Multiplier by Balance setting is 1000, the multiplier that will be used for the receiver copied trades will be 10 (10000/1000).

If Multiplier by Equity is selected, Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5© will use the below Multiplier by Equity setting for calculating the multiplier that will be used for the receiver copied trades as follows. If the receiver account equity is $10000 and the Multiplier by Equity setting is 1000, the multiplier that will be used for the receiver copied trades will be 10 (10000/1000).

If Proportional by Balance is selected, Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5© will copy the transmitter account trades onto the receiver account(s) with a lot size proportional to the receiver account(s) balance only. For example, if the transmitter balance is $2000 and the receiver balance is $4000, a 0.10 lot transmitter trade will be copied as a 0.20 lot trade to the receiver account.

If Proportional by Equity is selected, Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5© will copy the transmitter account trades onto the receiver account(s) with a lot size proportional to the receiver account(s) equity only. For example, if the transmitter equity is $2000 and the receiver equity is $4000, a 0.10 lot transmitter trade will be copied as a 0.20 lot trade to the receiver account.

If Proportional by Free Margin is selected, Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5© will copy the transmitter account trades onto the receiver account(s) with a lot size proportional to the receiver account(s) free margin only. For example, if the transmitter free margin is $2000 and the receiver free margin is $4000, a 0.10 lot transmitter trade will be copied as a 0.20 lot trade to the receiver account.

If Proportional Multiplier by Balance is selected, Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5© will copy the transmitter account trades onto the receiver account(s) with a lot size proportional to receiver account's balance with an additional multiplier applied, called Proportional Multiplier by Balance that can be adjusted below. This Proportional Multiplier by Balance is 1 by default, so if for example the default Proportional Multiplier by Balance=1 gives a 0.20 lot size trade to be opened on the receiver account side, if the Proportional Multiplier by Balance value is changed to 0.5 the receiver lot size will be 0.10 (0.20*0.5=0.10) and if the Proportional Multiplier by Balance value is changed to 3, the receiver lot size will be 0.60 (0.20*3=0.60).

If Proportional Multiplier by Equity is selected, Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5© will copy the transmitter account trades onto the receiver account(s) with a lot size proportional to receiver account's equity with an additional multiplier applied, called Proportional Multiplier by Equity that can be adjusted below. This Proportional Multiplier by Equity is 1 by default, so if for example the default Proportional Multiplier by Equity=1 gives a 0.20 lot size trade to be opened on the receiver account side, if the Proportional Multiplier by Equity value is changed to 0.5 the receiver lot size will be 0.10 (0.20*0.5=0.10) and if the Proportional Multiplier by Equity value is changed to 3, the receiver lot size will be 0.60 (0.20*3=0.60).

If Risk per Trade in % of Balance is selected, each receiver copied trade will have the appropriate lot size in order to lose the user defined percentage of account balance in the setting below, when SL is hit. This Lot Size Type can be used only for receiver copied trades that have a stop loss applied. Notice: If the SL of a transmitter original trade is modified, the receiver copied trade SL will be also modified, increasing or decreasing the initial risk of the receiver copied trade, but if the SL of the transmitter trade is removed, the receiver copied trade will be closed.

If Risk per Trade in % of Equity is selected, each receiver copied trade will have the appropriate lot size in order to lose the user defined percentage of account equity in the setting below, when SL is hit. This Lot Size Type can be used only for receiver copied trades that have a stop loss applied. Notice: If the SL of a transmitter original trade is modified, the receiver copied trade SL will be also modified, increasing or decreasing the initial risk of the receiver copied trade, but if the SL of the transmitter trade is removed, the receiver copied trade will be closed.

If Risk per Trade in % of Free Margin is selected, each receiver copied trade will have the appropriate lot size in order to lose the user defined percentage of account free margin in the setting below, when SL is hit. This Lot Size Type can be used only for receiver copied trades that have a stop loss applied. Notice: If the SL of a transmitter original trade is modified, the receiver copied trade SL will be also modified, increasing or decreasing the initial risk of the receiver copied trade, but if the SL of the transmitter trade is removed, the receiver copied trade will be closed.

If Risk per Trade in Money is selected, each receiver copied trade will have the appropriate lot size in order to lose the user defined amount in account currency in the setting below, when SL is hit. This Lot Size Type can be used only for receiver copied trades that have a stop loss applied. Notice: If the SL of a transmitter original trade is modified, the receiver copied trade SL will be also modified, increasing or decreasing the initial risk of the receiver copied trade, but if the SL of the transmitter trade is removed, the receiver copied trade will be closed.

If Lot Size per 1000 of Balance is selected, Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5© will use the below Lot Size per 1000 of Balance setting, to calculate the lot size of the receiver copied trades, based on the balance of the receiver account. For example if Lot Size per 1000 of Balance=0.03 is inserted and the receiver account balance is $10000, the lot size of all receiver copied trades will be 0.30 lots.

Finally if Lot Size per 1000 of Equity is selected, Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5© will use the below Lot Size per 1000 of Equity setting, to calculate the lot size of the receiver copied trades, based on the equity of the receiver account. For example if Lot Size per 1000 of Equity=0.03 is inserted and the receiver account equity is $10000, the lot size of all receiver copied trades will be 0.30 lots.


In Lot Size Management, select how you’d like trades to be copied to the Receiver account

17. Leaving other settings as-is will cause trades on the receiver account(s), copied by Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5©, to close automatically as soon as the corresponding trades on the transmitter account(s) are closed. Check the Inputs Guide for more details on all available options.


18. For extra security, go to the Emergency Trade Management section, enable Use Emergency Account Protection, and enter the Equity level you prefer. At this point, Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5© will close all receiver trades and disable copying if this threshold is met, offering protection from further losses. When ready, adjust other settings as needed and click OK.


For extra security, go to the Emergency Trade Management section, enable Use Emergency Account Protection

19. Upon closing the Expert Advisor's window, a sad face (or red icon in MT5) may appear on the upper-right of the chart, which means that the EA isn’t active yet. Click the Auto (Algo) Trading button to activate it, and the sad face will become a smile (or the red icon will change to green in MT5). Now, your Local Trade Copier EA MT4/5© is active, and trades from Transmitter accounts will start copying over to Receiver accounts in line with your settings. 


Click the Auto (Algo) Trading button to activate it, and the sad face will become a smile (or the red icon will change to green in MT5)

Important! The only 2 settings that are filled in the transmitter account side are these 2 highlighted in the screenshot below. All other settings are filled in the receiver account side. There is no meaning in changing any of the other settings in the transmitter account, it will mean nothing!
