How to Run the T5Copier

This guide details the setup for both the DLL-Free MT5 Copier and the MT4 ZeroMQ Copier.

Part 1: Running the MT5 DLL-Free Copier (Codebase Compliant)

This version utilizes MetaTrader 5's native TCP sockets, making it entirely DLL-free and independent of external library files like libzmq.dll or libsodium.dll.

Step 1: Start the Go TCP Bridge

Navigate to: C:\T5Copier\Go_bridge\
Run: T5Copier_Bridge.exe
A console window will display that the Go Bridge is listening on TCP port 5580.

Step 2: Launch the C# WPF Dashboard

Navigate to: C:\T5Copier\Dashboard\
Run: CSharpDashboard.exe
In the dropdown menu, select 'MT5 Copier (Port 5580)'.
Click 'Connect Dashboard'. The status indicator will turn to 'CONNECTED (MT5)'.

Step 3: Attach the MT5 Master EA (Sender)

Open your Master MT5 terminal.
In the Navigator panel, find and drag 'T5Copier_Master' onto any chart.
In the Expert Advisor properties:
Common tab: Ensure 'Allow Algo Trading' is checked. (DLL imports are not required for this version).
Inputs tab: Verify the server address is '127.0.0.1' and the port is '5580'.
Click 'OK'. Enable 'Algo Trading' via the MT5 top toolbar.

Step 4: Attach the MT5 Slave EA (Receiver)

Open your Slave MT5 terminal.
Drag 'T5Copier_Slave' onto any chart.
In the Expert Advisor properties:
Common tab: Check 'Allow Algo Trading'. (DLL imports are not required).
Inputs tab: Configure your desired copying parameters, such as:
- InpLotMode: Select LOT_MODE_FULL, LOT_MODE_RATIO, or LOT_MODE_FIXED.
- InpLotMultiplier: Set your lot size multiplier (e.g., 2.0 for double lots).
- InpReverseCopy: Set to true to reverse BUY/SELL orders.
Click 'OK'. Enable 'Algo Trading' in the toolbar.

Part 2: Running the MT4 Copier (ZeroMQ Powered)

This version utilizes the high-performance ZeroMQ library, designed to integrate seamlessly with MT4's environment.

Step 1: Start the Go ZMQ Bridge

Navigate to: C:\T4Copier\Go_bridge\
Run: T4Copier_Bridge.exe
The bridge will listen on the following ports:
- 5557 (Master incoming)
- 5558 (Slave outgoing)
- 5559 (Dashboard logs)

Step 2: Launch the C# WPF Dashboard

Navigate to: C:\T4Copier\Dashboard\
Run: CSharpDashboard.exe
In the dropdown menu, select 'MT4 Copier (Port 5559)'.
Click 'Connect Dashboard'.

Step 3: Attach the MT4 Master EA (Sender)

Open your Master MT4 terminal.
Drag 'T4Copier_Master' onto any chart.
In the Expert Advisor properties:
Common tab: Check 'Allow DLL imports'. (Required for ZeroMQ DLLs).
Inputs tab: Keep the default server address: 'tcp://localhost:5557'.
Click 'OK'.

Step 4: Attach the MT4 Slave EA (Receiver)

Open your Slave MT4 terminal.
Drag 'T4Copier_Slave' onto any chart.
In the Expert Advisor properties:
Common tab: Check 'Allow DLL imports' and 'Allow live trading'.
Inputs tab: Configure desired parameters like InpLotMode, InpLotMultiplier, etc.
Click 'OK'.

Step 5: Verification (Common to Both MT4 and MT5)

Place a trade on the Master terminal.
Observe the C# Dashboard: Trade details (ticket, symbol, type, lot size) should appear instantly in the 'Active Copied Trades' grid.
Confirm that the trade is replicated on the Slave terminal(s) according to your configured lot and reverse rules.
Closing a trade on the Master terminal should result in its instant closure on the Slave terminal(s).
