Following are simple steps to install Aeron EA in your Metatrader-4 (MT4) terminal
Aeron works only in MT4 terminal.
Here we are assuming that you have already installed MT4 in your computer.
-
Aeron EA software is in .EX4 format i.e. [aeron-grid-v1.ex4]
-
Copy the ex4 file (aeron-grid-v1.ex4) into your
MT4 terminal's experts
folder. To open this folder inside your terminal click on File menu >>> Open
Data Folder. Now open MQL4 folder and locate
experts
folder there.
-
Close your MetaTrader application (assuming it's currently open... if not just
ignore this step)
-
Launch MetaTrader. On the left hand side, look for the "Navigator" window.
If you can't find it go to View->Navigator menu or press Ctrl+N.
-
Under the Navigator tree, look into the "Expert Advisors" directory
-
Locate the aeron-grid-v1.ex4 EA in Navigator.
-
Click and drag the Expert Advisor onto the chart. This will result in a pop-up box
that will allow you to enter any external variables that may be needed on the "inputs"
tab.
-
Make sure you click on "Allow live trading" under the ‘common’ tab of
that box so the EA will work. Allow "Long & short " trades must be
enabled.
-
If you did everything right you will see a tiny smiling face at the top right hand
corner of the chart with the name of the Expert Advisor program that you are running
next to it. That’s it! Your automated trading system is now up and running.
If the little face is not smiling, (if it has a frown) it means you did not check
the "allow live trading" check box when you attached it. To fix this simply
left click anywhere on the chart, and select "expert advisors" from the
drop down menu and then "properties" to get to the current EAs properties.
Once there, on the common tab, click to allow live trading and click OK
If it is still not smiling, be sure to click the button in the MetaTrader toolbar
(right in the middle) that says "Auto Trading". It must have a green icon
next to it. If it’s red, it is disabled.
