Dubai, UAE – September 9, 2025 – Rimantas Petrauskas today announced the release of Local Trade Copier version 2.9.9j for MetaTrader 4 (MT4) and version 1.1.12 for MetaTrader 5 (MT5). The new update introduces important fixes and features aimed at improving trade copying reliability, safety, and flexibility—particularly for proprietary trading (prop firm) and retail forex trading environments worldwide.
The Local Trade Copier is widely used by traders who need to synchronize accounts across MetaTrader platforms. The latest release addresses critical functionality such as delayed trade execution, Stop Loss/Take Profit handling, and improved settings management. These updates provide traders with more control and reduce the chance of execution errors when running multiple accounts.
“Prop firm traders often face strict rules where even a small execution detail can affect results,” said Rimantas Petrauskas, founder of the Local Trade Copier. “This release brings additional control and stronger safety checks, ensuring that trade copying is both accurate and reliable.”
Key Updates in Versions 2.9.9j (MT4) and 1.1.12 (MT5):
- Delayed Trade Execution – A new feature allows traders to delay copying trades by X number of seconds. This is especially useful for prop firm accounts, where instant execution might not always be optimal under strict rules.
- New SL/TP Copying Option – Traders can now choose to copy Stop Loss and Take Profit by distance in points rather than the exact same price. This ensures consistent risk/reward ratios even when execution prices differ due to spread, slippage, or broker conditions.
- Trade Closing Sync Fix (for special setups) – When using the function that closes master trades once client trades are closed, this process now works correctly. Although the feature is usually turned off, traders who rely on it can be assured that it functions as intended when it is turned on.
- Improved Suffix Handling – Enhanced automatic suffix detection provides more flexibility. Traders can rely on auto-detection in most cases, but also have the option to control suffixes manually when working with brokers that use multiple variations.
- Settings File Auto-Save Fixed – The EA now correctly saves “known last settings” to a file at startup. This ensures that if the EA is removed and later reattached—whether on the same platform or another one—the user can quickly restore the previous configuration.
- Negative Magic Numbers Supported – Compatibility has been extended to allow the use of negative magic numbers without errors.
- Stronger Safety Checks – The EA now provides clear warnings if trade permissions are restricted, such as when auto-trading is disabled in the platform, trading is not allowed in EA properties, the account is read-only, or the broker blocks automated trading.
These updates reinforce the Local Trade Copier’s role in making account management, forex trading, and prop trading smoother and more secure for traders worldwide.
