Hello,

Mysteriously, last week my MT4 also started having problems with
'no connection'. I tried removing the program and re-installing it several
times. What happens is, when you first re-install everything works fine
connection-wise, you can open up a demo account, load indicators, profiles
, etc. But when you close the MT4 application and reopen it, the 'no connection' problem reappears.

After much trial and error over the weekend, I discovered a workaround,
(annoying as it is, but it will get around the 'no connection' problem):
Here's the workaround:

Open up MT4 and when you get the 'no connection' message, click on
the 'no connection' to get a Login dialog window. In the Login Dialogue Window, you will probably see the Moneytec Demo Server listed. Blank out
the 'Moneytec Demo Server' and type in the following IP Address and Port
exactly like this: 66.235.184.157:443
Click OK and the Login Dialog Window will dissappear. Note: At this point
you *will still* have the 'no connection' problem. But now if you close MT4
and reopen it, you should connect fine. The 'annoying' part of this workaround
is that this is not a permanent fix. You will probably have to repeat this
each time that you get the 'no connection' problem.

I suspect that the cause of the mysteriously appearing no connection problem
has to do with build 194 and the way it stores the the server information
in the CONFIG folder. I suspect that this build may cause these files to be
unreadable, thus causing the no connection error.

Try the workaround and see if it works for you.

Thanks for the info. I too am having problems with No Connection with the server showing as MetaQuotes-demo. Can I ask which server is the address you have given please?

One of the things I like about this Metatrader that I have is that it gives me charts on some Indices, CFD's and Gold. I don't want to lose being able to get data for these charts.

Foroz,

The Address/Port I gave in my original post is for the
MoneyTec Demo Server :66.235.184.157:443 which is the Demo Server
that is used for those people who downloaded and use Metatrader4 from
the StrategyBuilderfx site.

Other people, download and use MT4 from the Metaquotes Site (I assume
that this is your case). If so, then the Demo Server Address and Port that you should use is: 66.114.120.22:443 which is the Address of
Demo Server, which the MT4 software downloaded from the Metaquotes site
uses.

My procedure for the workaround remains the same for either version of MT4
that you're using (See my Post#2 above).

Hope that answers your question.

Yes thank you, that answered my question. I'd downloaded my demo from the metaquotes site.

After a short time of No Connection today, the data is now again coming in.

Thanks again.
