Frequently Asked Questions about the Signals service - page 7

 
Rex_Loner:

So, I can use Free MT4 Signal for my Real MT4 Account, right? But I can't do 'crossing' from MT4 Signal for MT5 Account, and Vice Versa. Am I right?

Correct.

 

Rex_Loner:


The next question is, I'm using Van****fx.com broker. Inside my MT4 trading terminal, there's a new section named Signals and inside this section there's a lot of Signals provided. Does it mean all of them is compatible with MT4 already? 

 Yes, it should do.  I don't think you will see MT5 Signals from within MT4 or visa versa.

 
RaptorUK:

Correct.

Thanks a lot, RaptorUK. :)

You subscribed for a week, renew your subscription.
 

In this page https://www.mql5.com/en/articles/523, written at the second paragraph: All signals will work only in demo mode within a month. What does it mean? So all the signals only work in your demo account and after 1 month you have to subscribe again, or all the signals just only work with demo account that lasting in a month? :$

The translation is not the best,  try looking at the Russian in Google translate . . .

 

"Because we care about your safety, the reliability of all the suppliers of signals is thoroughly checked, and within a month they will only run in demo mode. "

I think it means that when a signal starts it can only be in Demo mode (not charging) during it's first month.

"... they will only run in demo mode." is this some kind pre-testing from Metequotes before people can use it or we have to test it within a month in demo account before use it in real account?

I think a Signal has to be running for a month in Free/Demo mode before it can change to a subscription Signal.

Okay thanks, RaptorUK. That make a sense now.
 

I am a bit new to Signals so sorry about my basic questions.

I subscribed to a paid real signal on Mt4 , my account says its active , but no trades are made on my account.  Can it be becuase I dont have my Mt4 terminal open when the trades are made by provider , is this a requirement to be logged into the terminal to recieve the signals , or can the signals make the trade on the broker end without having my terminal (mt4 build 509, Real account) open ?

 

Also when I check the signals tab on my terminal , it does NOT show the signal provider that I have subscribed.    

 

The jounal on my terminal says my credits are activated for my mql5 account and shows the balance .

  

Help Please !!! :):)
