Hi
I am wondering if it is OK to run multiple EA's on the same instance of metatrader, or if I have to use different ones? As far as I understand things, as long as each EA uses a different 3 digit 'magic number', it is OK to have them trading on the same screen, and even pairs and timeframes, without interfering with the actions of other EA's.
Obviously this makes it a bit more tricky when it comes to figuring out the profitability of each in forward testing, but as far as I know it is technically fine.
Am I correct in that, or was the above a big pile of nonsense?!
Thanks
David
