In version S 1.16, Z5, I read somewhere that with a capital of 6000 it gives around 1000 pe month. I started with a live capital of 3000 and then I increased to 6000 with Margin 100, Stop 5000 and Mode 1. More than that doesn't seem to be possible. However, it seems that it is stopping trading. Account now is close to 6700 with an open position of - 433. Any glue on this? Any limit?

Yepp. The maximum amount of money you can trade with the standard Zorro version is 7000€. You can read it somewhere at the beginning of the manual...

Oh. Sorry. I see you have the S version!
Then I must admit that I don't know why it doesn't trade anymore...
You are sure you have copied your license file to the Zorro folder?

If trades are skipped because you're over the capital limit, or for other reasons, you'll see this in the message window. Zorro S has no capital limit though.

If you're using Z5, definitely update to Zorro 1.20. It has a new Z5 version that opens more trades.

I installed the 1.20, however it gives some problem with real account. It allow to do backtesting in the same account but when pushing the "Trade" button to continue trading with open positions it comes message saying that can't open MT4 bridge. Can't connect. If it can connect to do backtesting how is it that it can not connect for trading?

I have replaced the Zorro.mq4 ZorroMT4.ex4 and ZorroMT4.dll as instructed.

Any glue?

ok, now is working. For some reason when you replace the dll file and the ex4 file, it really doesn't replace them. You have to do it several times and make sure that the modifications dates of the files are those that correspond.

It might be that it was during weekend and MT4 had some problem. In any case, fro Real account the replacement of the files worked correctly meanwhile yesterday Sunday was not working. But now today Monday, meanwhile the Real account is working, the demo account even with the replaced files accepted by MT4, keeps not working, Keeps saying Broker: can't open MT4 bridge. Can't connect.

If you installed MT4 with UAC enabled, it creates a shadow copy of its experts folder in the VirtualStore directory - it's the same as with Zorro.

Anyway, coming back to the issue of limits of Zorro S, Z5, when trying to do backtesting in the demo, it allows to do it by default Margin 50 and capital 5000. Once you have done one time, it doesn't allow to do it with further increases of Margin to see how it behaves. Is there anyway to be able to increase the Margin to see how it behaves in backtesting?
