Newbie with some questions to ask 

 

1) In MetaTrader 4, if an EA is used, Is there some way to set the initial "Investment Amount" so that MetaTrader 4 will use only this amount to trade for the full Trading Session ?

 

2) In MetaTrader 4, if an EA is used, Is there some way to set a "Flag" such that if the initial "Investment Amount" has reached "0" or is a "Negative" Value ->>> TO STOP EA TRADING IMMEDIATELY ?  

 

Thank you very much for your time and kind help.

 

Warm Regards as Always

You don't need to enable proxy on MT4 if it is already been done at the operating system level.

If every other application and the operating system is successfully communication via your phones Internet Share, then just use MT4 as normal without the proxy settings.

One can see in your screenshots that MT4 is working just fine in connecting to the trade server even before you setup the proxy settings

Thank you Sir, I thats how thought it would be so I simply don't understand why it won't connect to the trading servers unless I use another source of internet .

Because, maybe, it is your mobile internet service provider that is blocking the communication and not your setup. Run a trace-route and find out.

Many mobile ISP filter traffic to reduce communication costs on their side, allowing only certain protocols to pass through.
