Q1
I have turned the warning off (pls check if its the right way).
Q2
But i thought the ea will be hosted on there server and i dont have to connect my system once i submit the ea and wont be able to do that (turn off warning) once i submit it.
Q3
I still have difficulty to see my ea in mt5 (just saw it yest. after putting it off and on). I have created some this morning and cant see it there. So pls how do i solve it once and for all.
Q1 Yes, that is the way to change it in your terminal but the file (.mq5) is not modified. So before you send them your ea, you need to open the ea in the mt editor and look for that variable and change it to false (you need a pro version for this).
look for
input bool ShowWarnings=true;
change to
input bool ShowWarnings=false;
Q2 look at Q1
Q3 We already told you the windows issue about roaming. You need to copy the ea manually to the roaming directory. You may want to recheck restarting the terminal.
There is another option:
-Open the mt editor
-Create a new empty EA
-Use the copy code button from the EA visual wizard, paste the code in your empty EA. Compile the EA. This is why we have a copy code button.

Q1
how do i set it to take trade btw $3 and $5 without risking more than 5% of the a/c
You need to read more about forex trading, you need to learn the concept of lot, leverage, and contract size (there are lot of free sources on google - I like babypips.com). Usually 1 lot = 100K, 0.1 lot = 10K
The generated EA has a variable called MaxVolumePosition = 0.1 it controls the max volume per currency pair. Depending on your strategy you may want to change it to a higher value. You can change it in the START icon or directly in mt5.
You can control the max percentage at risk with the mt variables:
input bool UseMaximumPercentageatRisk = false;
// Turns on/off max risk condition
input double MaximumPercentageatRisk = 1;
// i.e max size of trade = 2 = 2% of equity
These variables are also available in the START icon. Set them to ON (in the start icon) or true directly in metatrader and to 5 (5%). This feature will reduce the lot size close to 5% of free margin. (If your lot size is equivalent to a percentage lower than 5% you won't see any difference). The calculation is an approximation since the calculation has to use valid lot sizes (i.e. the 5% lot is 0.16 which is not valid, it has to be changed to 0.2 which may be higher than 5%)
If the 5% lot size is lower than the minimum accepted, the min lot size (i.e 0.1) will be used otherwise no trading would be possible. (The formula to calculate risk assume you are using 100 leverage)
