If I am running multiple instances of MetaTrader and one is logged into a demo and the other a live account, can I use an EA on the demo to set a globalvariable that my live account EA will recognize? I thought this might work as they are running from the same terminal on the computer???? Any info/confirmation would be greatly appreciated! Thank you forum..... Daniel

The article deals with programmed tracking of events in the МetaТrader 4 Client Terminal, such as opening/closing/modifying orders, and is targeted at a user who has basic skills in working with the terminal and in programming in MQL 4. |

To have 2 Terminals running at the same time u must install 2 instances of MT4, each in it's own directory. Here is a good list of possible solutions to your problem by 7bit -> http://forum.mql4.com/34987#367597. |

I have tried to learn mql and use this forum to "borrow" good code and ideas and then make the code do what I want it to :) I truly appreciate your feedback! |

GlobalVariable will not work across different MT4 instances. You need some form of communication (file, message, DLL) between between different MT4 instances.
