Compiler Fixes
Read the first MQL5 compile error before fixing the whole EA.
Most broken EA drafts create a cascade of MetaEditor messages. The useful move is to classify the first compiler error, fix the missing structure, then recompile before touching entry logic.
Search intent
The developer has one or more MQL5 compiler errors and needs to identify the first structural blocker.

Start with missing names and includes
Errors such as undeclared identifier, unknown function, or missing CTrade calls usually point to a missing include, object declaration, helper function, or scope mismatch.
Separate syntax from MQL5 migration errors
Brace, semicolon, and parameter-count errors are different from MT4-to-MT5 API mistakes. Fix the syntax layer first, then handle MQL5 handles, positions, deals, and trade requests.
Recompile after each structural fix
A compile cascade can shrink from dozens of errors to one real blocker. Save each pass and keep risk gates visible while repairing the EA.
Use the tool
Paste the first MetaEditor error and the full EA draft into Workfusion Compiler Fixer to generate a focused repair pass.
