Heiken Ashi EA MT5 is pre-configured with a EURUSD H4 strategy, which has been specially fine-tuned for ECN Raw Spread ICMarkets accounts that operate on New York based GMT+3 time zone servers. While it's certainly possible to use other brokers or account types, I would advise thorough testing of Heiken Ashi EA MT5 along with necessary time adjustments to ensure compatibility with your particular broker/account. You can easily check your server time in the MT5 Marketwatch window (MT5 -> View -> Marketwatch). Just to aid you all, I've compiled a list of necessary adjustments according to various broker's server time zones. But remember, always align Heiken Ashi EA's MT5 Start Time and End Time settings before you proceed with testing or trading! The server and corresponding start and end times are as follows: GMT-12 16:59 00:59, GMT-11 17:59 01:59, GMT-10 18:59 02:59, and so on up to GMT+12 16:59 00:59. Stay cautious and trade wisely!
 
Absolutely thrilled! After much searching, I've finally found a Heiken Ashi EA for MT5 that delivers on its promises. The clarity brought by the numeric values is a game changer. This EA appears to be a real gem in the realm of automated trading.
