EA Update History
Current versions of the distributed EAs and how to update to a new version.
🔔 How to check for updates
- EAs check the latest version during license authentication at startup
- If a new version exists, a notice appears on the MT5 chart
- Re-download the latest version from each EA's download page
🔄 How semi-automatic updates work
Due to MT5's design, an EA cannot fully replace itself automatically. When a new version is detected, this EA auto-downloads the new file so you only need to copy it.
- On startup, if a new version is detected, the new .ex5 is auto-downloaded to the MQL5\Files folder
- Open MT5 menu [File]→[Open Data Folder]→MQL5\Files
- Move the downloaded {EA}_vX.XX.ex5 to MQL5\Experts folder, renamed as {EA}.ex5 (overwrite)
- Restart MT5, or reload the EA on the chart
* The .ex5 is precompiled, so no recompilation in MetaEditor is needed.
