Hi,

Due to regular updates of the algorithm, the old version of the installation guide has lost its relevance.
Therefore, I decided to create a new topic in order to tell you how to perform the installation
ELM EA.

The installation and configuration process, takes no more than 5 minutes if you already have everything ready.

In order to set up the algorithm, we will need:

1. VPS server (What is a VPS and what is it for?)
2. Downloaded archive with the Expert Advisor. (Download the demo here. Download the licence here).
3. Open an account with any broker. (Algorithm, there is no link to a broker, but we do provide a list of recommended brokers for trading.)


I will do a setup using the ELM PRO MT5 version as an example. The license for the Professional version includes a trading robot for MT4 and for MT5. In case you are using Optimum, you have to choose which trading platform you are interested in, MT4 or MT5. View the version comparison table.

Installation by example ELM EA PRO MT5


If there are problems with the installation, email me - https://t.me/develonbot

After downloading, I see two separate folders. Which one should I install? Optimum? Pro?

Hello!
Why do I need a VPS server to work with the EA, if I have a very fast Internet at home and my PC is on around the clock?

You decided to ask this question in each of the topics? The answer will always be the same, you can have the fastest internet in the world from the best provider in town, but you will never achieve positive results without using a VPS server) Since the server has the ability to be closer to the main liquidity provider and can be in the same building as the broker, it allows you to have the best speed, which your home PC will never achieve)

Pay so much money to buy a high-precision scalper algorithm and try to make money with it by installing it on your PC - it's a mockery) Rent the cheapest VPS server in London and you'll see the difference)

The most expensive VPS server does not mean that it is the best, and the cheapest, that it is bad. You can learn more about this topic here.

I saw that you released an update. I have a question. With the addition of 3 currency pairs, do I have to delete the old EA files? And have the general settings of the EA changed?

Hello!:)
You just need to download the update and do exactly the same steps as when you install and configure it the first time.
Adding new currencies does not affect the general settings and the work of the algorithm in general. Continue to use the default settings.

Hi! I downloaded the update, but there is still no connection, what to do?
It is very simple, if you have done everything correctly and your EA does not go into ready mode after reloading the trading platform, as shown below, I advise you to go directly to the EA and Journal tabs. There is all the information I can help you with) Or contact our technical support - Telegram:-@develonbot

Thank you very much, I did not select currency pairs when installing ) I could not make a screenshot from the log and your specialist connected to my VPS server using the Anydesk and identified the problem

I think that it is necessary to issue an installation and setup guide to avoid such situations.
I think that soon, I will record all the details in a video.

Thank you for this attitude to your customers. Very easy to install, I think it's very hard to make a mistake)
Before that I worked with Expert Advisors, which required individual settings for each currency pair and many additional parameters. And there was no result.
With your Expert Advisor everything is much easier and more comfortable.)

Hi !
What settings should I apply when installing the EA ?
Hello!)
I recommend using the standard settings templates, which should give stable results with minimal risk, so I recommend using them.

The standard settings templates allow you to get a profit of up to 70%, but this percentage depends on many factors. Such as the choice of broker, market volatility, settings, leverage, etc. I think you better continue this conversation in another thread where clients share their results;)
