EA for demo account only

[swordfish]

Will this simple code 'IsDemo()" added to any IF statement allow the EA to work with demo accounts only?

For example,

if(MacdCurrent>0 && MacdCurrent<SignalCurrent && MacdPrevious>SignalPrevious && IsDemo() &&

MacdCurrent>(MACDCloseLevel*Point))

{

OrderClose(OrderTicket(),OrderLots(),Bid,3,Violet); // close position

return(0); // exit

 

Will the EA still show a Smiley Face on chart of a live account?

Yes to both of your questions

and it will take any vaguely technical person about 3 seconds to remove.

Yes, I know. Is there a more secure way?

If you don't use an expiration date in your demo version you can spare the demo restriction because there a good trade copiers even here on II.

There was a free tool (ex4_protector) to protect .ex4 against the most common decompiler (224)...don't know whether it's still availlable and still protects latest metatrader version
