help: EA does not start-new to Expert Advisor

 

was trying to test whether the EA works when each new tick comes in. below is the code. but there is no alert box comes up every time when there is a new tick. what could be wrong?

int start()
{
Alert(Bars);

}

Lets assume the account is working and the market trading, i.e. receiving tick data (prices are changing in the Price window)?

Does the EA 'face' on the top right of the chart have a smile or a frown?

If its not smiling, go to Tools Menu/Options/Expert Advisers and 'Enable Expert Advisers'

Let us know if it still wont work

Good luck
