MetaTrader 5 Automation Hub: ZeroMQ Bridge, Retcode 10016 Fixes & Manual Trade Guard

Direct Technical Answer

Equity Guard still polls every 3 seconds if the bot is idle.

The EA does not need to poll the broker for prices. That split is how a VPS can manage an iPhone fill without spending FTMO's 2,000 daily request budget on a tick trail. This hub is the setup, the retcode table, and the mobile-guard path.

Two connection paths: local ZeroMQ or MetaAPI cloud

Either path is write-capable. Investor-password journal bridges (the pattern in some competing MT5 journals) cannot flatten. If the goal is prop protection, a read-only connection is a dashboard, not a guard.

Retcode 10016, STOPLEVEL, and why gold rejects an 8-point stop

FundedNext also counts 200 executed trades per day. A scalper who splits every idea into 8 micro tickets can fail the trade cap while still looking quiet on the request cap. Count both. Apex and Topstep are not MT5 desks; their message limits are CME ratios on Rithmic, Tradovate, or TopstepX, and they live on the futures pages, not in this ZeroMQ hub.

Mobile fills, Telegram /close, and the PC that went to sleep

Presets are scalp, intraday, and swing. They change pip distances, not the socket. Asset-aware pip values (gold $100/point, EURUSD $10/pip, NAS100 $1/point) live in the same guard so a 20-pip template is not dropped onto XAUUSD.

Install the bridge, then set the flatten line

start free on Venasri and open 24/7 MT5 Bot Control only after the bridge is green. The 2,000-request budget is a trailing-step problem (price steps, not tick steps). This hub's remaining pages are the retcode cookbook and the VPS latency notes for that budget.

Frequently Asked Questions: MetaTrader 5 Automation Hub: ZeroMQ Bridge, Retcode 10016 Fixes & Manual Trade Guard

Venasri connects to MetaTrader 5 and protects the account with Equity Guard, Manual Trade Guard, and position-size limits.

Local sockets keep price polling off the broker server, which is how you stay under a 2,000-request daily cap.

What is MT5 retcode 10016?

Invalid stops: the SL or TP is closer than STOPLEVEL, frozen, or on the wrong side of the quote. Venasri retries at the broker minimum and cuts lots so dollar risk does not jump when the stop is forced wider.

Can Venasri protect a trade I opened on the iPhone MT5 app?

Yes, if the account is connected by ZeroMQ or MetaAPI.

Do FTMO and FundedNext share the same EA cap?

FundedNext also caps 200 executed trades per day and $300,000 of allocation on an identical EA strategy. Count tickets and messages, not only messages.
