Connectivity issues with MT4 Bridge

Hi, I have successfully connected Zorro with MT4 via the provided bridge running on a Demo account on a VPS. However, I noticed that on multiple occasions during the day for no particular known to me reason, Zorro EA becomes disconnected from Zorro. Then I have to "reactivate" it by pressing the "Trade" button and trading activity is restored. Any ideas why this may be happening? 100% connectivity is a must for algo trading and I can't effectively test any systems this way. Cheers

Hi fxsurgeon,

did you check Experts and Journal Tab in MT4? There should be some kind of messages which probably are related to the issue.

Thanks for the suggestions. It only says "Zorro Disconnected!"...

I asked this question on Zorro's official forum. Apparently we need to just press the "Trade" button again... Not cool. I wish the EA wouldn't disconnect from Zorro just because server connection dropped.

I also trade on a Mini pc at home via mt4 bridge (on demo for tests). Did not have such an issue until now. Even if it happened that my Router lost internetconnection, as soon as Router was online again, both mt4 and zorro continued trading.

Did you try "set(LOGFILE)" and "Verbose = 20" in your zorro script? Maybe zorro can give a hint on whats wrong ...
