What You Need Before Starting
Phase 1: Registration & License Setup
Prepare Your MT5 Account
To use Smart Trader Plus, our system needs to know which MT5 account you will be using. This account will link your license to the trading algorithm.
Demo Plan Validation:
- Free 90-Day Trial: You get 90 days to test the algorithm with virtual money.
- Demo Accounts Only: You MUST enter a MT5 Demo/Trial account number. Live accounts will be rejected by the server.
- Any Broker: You can use a demo account from any MT5 broker.
- MT5 Account ID: Your exact login number (e.g. 10001234)
- Broker Server: Exact server name (e.g. VantageInternational-Demo or RoboForex-ECN). Make sure there are no typos!
Register Your License at Checkout
Once you click "Get Started" on the pricing page, you will be taken to a checkout/registration form.
Instant Activation
Upon submitting the form, your account is instantly licensed in our secure database! You can immediately proceed to downloading the EA.
Phase 2: MetaTrader 5 Setup
Download & Place the Algorithm File
You can now start the algorithm on your MetaTrader 5 terminal.
Checking your license status...
How to place the file inside MetaTrader 5:
- Copy your downloaded SmartTraderPlus.ex5 file.
- Inside MT5, click File on the top menu, then click Open Data Folder.
- Double click on MQL5, then double click on Experts.
- Paste the copied file here.
- Refresh: Right-click on "Expert Advisors" in the Navigator panel on the left, and click Refresh.
Enable WebRequest Licensing Settings
Because the Smart Trader Plus EA needs to check your license securely over the internet, you must tell MetaTrader 5 that it is allowed to talk to our website. If you skip this, the EA will immediately remove itself from the chart and print a "License Verification Failed" error.
Allow Licensing URL Connections:
1. Go to the top menu: Tools → Options (or press Ctrl+O).
2. Click the Expert Advisors tab.
3. Check the box that says "Allow WebRequest for listed URL".
4. Double-click the green plus icon to add this exact URL:
https://www.bcbelevatetrading.comImportant: Ensure the spelling is exact.
Attach the EA to Your Chart
Last step is to load the robot file onto the target chart.
- Open the target chart you wish to trade.
- Open Navigator: If you don't see it, press Ctrl + N.
- Expand Expert Advisors, locate SmartTraderPlus, and drag it onto the chart.
- On the settings popup window, click the Common tab and check the box for "Allow Algo Trading". Click OK.
Once you attach the EA to the chart, it will automatically connect to our server. If your MT5 Account ID and Server match what you registered at checkout, the dashboard will appear and you are ready to trade!
