Mailbox & live data

How the Locimens mailbox handshake feeds the desktop bridge from MetaTrader 5.

Mailbox & live data

The Locimens EA writes structured mailbox / handshake files that the local bridge reads. That path lets the desktop app and agents see account context beyond what a bare terminal API may expose in your setup.

What to expect when healthy

  • Desktop Overview shows account / connection context
  • Agents can use MT5 tools without constant “empty account” errors
  • EA chart strip (when present) reflects demo/live and equity context

Settings

In Settings → MT5:

  • Confirm mailbox path or Experts-related options match your terminal
  • Save after changing paths
  • Restart the bridge or app if the UI still shows stale disconnects

Common failure modes

  • EA not attached or algo trading disabled
  • Wrong Experts / data folder configured in Locimens
  • MT5 closed or logged into a different account than registered
  • Plan blocks live trading (demo-only / Beginner limits)

Use the Connection checklist before contacting support.
