Exness’s automated trading (EA) is a system that automatically executes trades based on pre-programmed trading rules. You can engage in automated trading by installing an EA (Expert Advisor) on Exness’s MT4 (MetaTrader 4) or MT5 (MetaTrader 5).For example, if you use an EA programmed to “buy when the USD/JPY (U.S. dollar/Japanese yen) rate reaches 150 yen,” an order will be placed automatically once the conditions are met, without you having to place the order yourself.With automated trading, all trades are executed automatically, so unlike discretionary trading, they are not influenced by emotions. Additionally, even those who find it difficult to set aside time for trading or who are new to FX can take advantage of automated trading to ensure they don’t miss out on trading opportunities.

Please note that EAs are not compatible between MT4 and MT5, so be sure to install and use an EA that is compatible with your trading platform.
Compared to MT5, MT4 offers a wider variety of EAs, which are made available in various communities—both paid and free—making it easy for anyone to set up an EA. On the other hand, MT5 features significantly enhanced backtesting capabilities and processing power compared to MT4 for evaluating the performance of automated trading strategies.

(*) Leveraged trading involves high risk, and you may lose all of your invested capital. Please ensure you fully understand the risks before trading.
Exness offers leverage of up to 2,000x across all account types. Since you can take advantage of this high leverage under the same conditions when using automated trading, you can take on large trades even with a small amount of capital.While trading with high leverage involves risks, using automated trading allows you to execute consistent trades automatically without being swayed by emotions, thereby helping to mitigate the risks associated with high leverage.

Furthermore, Exness offers low spreads and is well-suited for scalping EAs, allowing you to enjoy automated trading under favorable conditions.While many brokers prohibit scalping trades using EAs (Expert Advisors), Exness imposes no restrictions on trading strategies. Even beginners in FX trading can enjoy automated trading while keeping costs low and without missing out on profit opportunities.
Scalping is a trading strategy that involves repeatedly buying and selling over short periods—ranging from a few seconds to a few minutes—to accumulate small profits. While the profit from a single trade is small, the short duration of each position allows you to trade while minimizing the risk of loss.Since scalping involves a high volume of trades, choosing the right FX broker and account type is crucial for keeping trading costs low.Exness offers spreads starting at 0.0 pips—which is below the industry average—and low transaction fees, allowing you to trade while keeping costs to a minimum. Furthermore, since Exness does not impose strict restrictions on scalping, you can enjoy scalping with peace of mind.
Exness offers a free VPS (Virtual Private Server) to users who meet certain criteria.VPS stands for Virtual Private Server. It consists of multiple independent virtual servers running on a single physical server, allowing users to freely utilize each virtual server. If you can run an EA (Expert Advisor) on a VPS, you can trade 24 hours a day even when your PC is turned off, and you won’t be affected by internet connection issues.A VPS maximizes the performance of automated trading and is an essential service for running your trading systems 24 hours a day. Please note that there are certain requirements to use Exness’s VPS for free; you must meet one of the following conditions.
To use automated trading (EA) on Exness, you’ll need to install your desired EA (Expert Advisor) on the Exness trading platform (MT4/MT5) and complete the initial setup. Once the EA is set up, you can start automated trading right away.
If you do not yet have an Exness account, please first open a live account, then install the desktop versions of MT4 (MetaTrader 4) or MT5 (MetaTrader 5) and set up your EA. The steps for setting up an automated trading system (EA) are as follows:
Launch Exness's MT4 (MetaTrader 4) or MT5 (MetaTrader 5).
Click "Open Data Folder" in the File menu.
Open "MQL4 or MQL5" and double-click the "Experts" folder.
Drag and drop the EA (Expert Advisor) you downloaded into the “Experts” folder.
Right-click "Expert Advisors" in the Navigator window, then click "Refresh."
From the "Tools" menu, click "Options."
On the "Expert Advisors" tab, check the boxes next to "Allow automated trading" and "Allow use of DLLs (enabled only for trusted applications)," then click "OK."
Click "Expert Advisors" in the "Navigator" window, then drag and drop the downloaded EA (Expert Advisor) onto the chart.
When the EA window appears, click "OK."

If you wish to change a value, double-click the “Value” field, enter the new value, and then click “Save” and “OK.”Please note that if you wish to start automated trading using the default settings, you do not need to change any parameters.
An "Automated Trading" icon will appear below the MT4/MT5 menu bar. Click the icon; if it turns green, automated trading has started.
That completes the installation of the EA (Expert Advisor) on Exness's MT4/MT5.
To successfully use automated trading (EA) on Exness, choosing the right EA (Expert Advisor) is crucial. While there are both free and paid EAs available, there are several key factors to consider when selecting one, such as whether it aligns with your trading style and strategy. Please use these selection criteria as a guide and enjoy automated trading with the EA that best suits your needs.Here are the key points to consider when selecting an automated trading system (EA) on Exness:
When trading with automated trading systems (EAs) on Exness, we recommend that you verify the tradable instruments.Depending on the EA (Expert Advisor) you use, it may only trade specific currency pairs. If you use automated trading with currency pairs other than those specified by the EA, the price movements may not align with the trading program. To maximize the EA’s performance and generate profits, be sure to check the supported trading instruments.
In addition, Exness allows you to trade a wide range of CFD products, including FX currency pairs, precious metals, energy, stocks, stock indices, and cryptocurrencies. While some EAs may specify fairly obscure instruments, Exness offers a vast selection of over 200 tradable instruments, which means you’ll have a wider range of EAs to choose from.
When trading with automated trading systems (EAs) on Exness, we recommend that you review the trading strategies employed by the EA (Expert Advisor). Trading strategies vary depending on the EA; some use “scalping” techniques, while others employ “hedging,” for example.For example, if an EA uses a scalping strategy, it is important to select the optimal account type based on the “spread”; if it uses a hedging strategy, you should select the optimal account type by considering both the “spread” and “transaction fees.” In particular, since transaction costs double with hedging, choosing the optimal account type will help you efficiently aim to generate profits through automated trading.
Furthermore, since Exness has few restrictions and supports a wide range of trading strategies, you can enjoy automated trading without any limitations.While many brokers prohibit scalping with EAs or impose detailed restrictions, Exness allows you to use EAs without any restrictions on trading methods. As a result, the risk of incurring penalties due to automated trading on Exness is low, and you can aim to generate profits without missing out on trading opportunities by utilizing a wide variety of EAs.
When trading with automated trading systems (EAs) on Exness, we recommend that you review the EA’s (Expert Advisor) trading performance. Many EAs available for download online provide backtest data published by their developers, allowing you to review their trading performance.By reviewing at least the “Total P&L,” “Profit Factor,” “Maximum Drawdown,” and “Number of Trades” metrics, you can determine whether an EA is effective.

Please note that even if an EA’s trading results are publicly available, we recommend that you conduct your own backtesting to verify the EA’s performance. By performing backtesting, you can verify the effectiveness of the logic programmed into the EA using historical market data.
There are several points to keep in mind when trading with Exness’s automated trading (EA) system. Please review these precautions in advance so you can efficiently generate profits and enjoy automated trading. The following are the precautions to keep in mind when trading with Exness’s automated trading system.
At Exness, you are free to choose from a variety of EAs (Expert Advisors), both free and paid; however, some may only be usable with specific FX brokers. In particular, EAs distributed for free may require trading with a designated FX broker.If a specific FX broker is designated, the EA may not function properly on Exness, so be sure to check whether it is compatible with Exness before selecting an EA. If no specific FX broker is designated, you can enjoy automated trading (EA) on Exness’s MT4 (MetaTrader 4) and MT5 (MetaTrader 5) platforms.
Exness offers a variety of trading platforms in addition to MT4 (MetaTrader 4) and MT5 (MetaTrader 5), but only the desktop versions of MT4 and MT5 support automated trading (EAs).The “mobile versions of MT4/MT5,” “WebTerminal,” and “Exness Trading App” do not support automated trading; therefore, if you wish to engage in automated trading with Exness, please use the desktop versions of MT4/MT5.
Please note that EAs (Expert Advisors) on Exness are not compatible between MT4 and MT5, so you cannot use a single EA for automated trading on both MT4 and MT5. When purchasing a paid EA, please verify that it is compatible with your preferred trading platform before proceeding.
Before engaging in automated trading on Exness, we recommend conducting a backtest to ensure it operates properly. A backtest is a process of checking and verifying how well an EA (Expert Advisor) performs based on historical forex market data. An EA that has performed well in the past is more likely to continue delivering good results in the future.
While some EAs publish backtest results, there may be significant differences between those results and actual trading results, depending on the backtest period. We recommend that you conduct your own backtests before trading and verify the track record of the EA you plan to use before starting automated trading.
When using a VPS for automated trading (EA) with Exness, we recommend restarting the VPS periodically. If the VPS runs continuously, memory constraints may cause the EA (Expert Advisor) to slow down. If the EA’s processing speed slows, it can affect order execution speed, and you may miss out on profit opportunities.To prevent losses, please restart your VPS regularly if you’re trading 24 hours a day using automated trading. Additionally, restarting your VPS on weekends—when most markets are closed—will help minimize any impact on your automated trading’s order and settlement processing.
Please tell me the benefits of using automated trading (EA) on Exness.
Exness’s automated trading (EA) is available under favorable conditions, including leverage of up to 1:2000 and industry-leading tight spreads starting from 0.0 pips.In addition, those who meet certain criteria can use a VPS for free.
