MT5 setup / quick reference

MT5 error 10027 or 10026?
Find the right next step.

10027 points to the client terminal. 10026 points to the trade server. Read the exact return code, then follow its route below.

For an EA, check the message in Toolbox → Experts or Journal. The code helps identify where to investigate.

10026

Check with the broker.

TRADE_RETCODE_SERVER_DISABLES_AT
Automated trading is disabled by the trade server.

Ask the broker to investigate the restriction for the account and the attempted operation.

A local terminal toggle cannot remove a server-side restriction. The code alone does not establish the broker-specific cause.

Can I run an EA in MT5 for iPhone or iPad?

No. The MT5 iOS app cannot install or run Expert Advisors (EAs). Desktop EA installation and Algo Trading controls apply to the host running the EA.

TradeMaster Autobot needs its supported, configured Windows PC or Windows VPS setup, with MT5 running and online. You can monitor your broker account on your phone; the EA runs on the Windows host.

Read the iPhone/Android EA and host guide for what closing the phone app changes, what must stay online and why hosting compatibility matters.
