Topic: EA not trading, just installed in MT4

Hi there,

I just installed an EA from Expert Advisor Studio, however the EA is not trading. I see a smiley, and autotrading was enabled before dragging the EA to the chart.

Yes, it looks all right. Did you get some trades in the meantime? If not, check the "Experts" and "Journal" tabs for any kind of errors and report them back here, so that we can help.

There is an easy trick to test the robot, but do it on a DEMO account only.

Open 4-5 charts and switch to the M1 period. Attach the robot with different magic numbers to each chart.
You may see it trading sooner.
This is what I'm doing when working on the MQL code
