How to Install an EA with DLL

Some Expert Advisors (EAs) use a custom DLL file. Because this DLL is not signed by a publisher, antivirus software may block it and show a false virus alert. To make sure your EA works, you need to allow it in your antivirus.

Installation Steps

STEP 1️⃣: Adjust Antivirus Settings

• Before downloading the file, turn off your antivirus temporarily.

• Add exclusions in your antivirus for the folders you will use:

  • Your Download folder (where you save the EA/indicator files).

  • The root folder of your MT4 or MT5 platform.

STEP 2️⃣: Download and Extract Files

• Download the EA package.

• Right-click → Extract the files to a folder.

STEP 3️⃣: Copy DLL Files

• Open the folder named DLL.

• Copy all files inside and paste them into the root folder of MT4/MT5.

STEP 4️⃣: Copy EA Files

• Copy the EA and any related files (e.g., indicators, set files).

• Paste them into the correct MQL4/MQL5 folders of your terminal.

Done! ✅
Now restart your platform and enable the EA.
