hello I subscribed to a paid signal today for a reason I unsubscribed in order to subscribe again lated into my vps. I noticed that I cannot resubscribe back since my payment is already blocked and no recognized by the provider. What should I do in order to subscribe back to normal?
I'm attempting to subscribe to a signal in MT4 and my journal reflects "signal - subscription/renewal prohibited", even though my configuration seems legit and I entered the correct password and clicked 'okay'.
This is a pay signal based on a real account (for which I have sufficient MQL5 funds), while my account is a demo. Basically, I want to test the signal first-hand.
I checked the rules for signals, and see the following:
"11. In the client terminal's showcase, a real account can only subscribe to Signals from real accounts and a demo account can only subscribe to Signals from demo accounts.Trading account specified during Subscription cannot be changed later on. New subscription should be created to use another trading account."
Am I correct in assuming this is the reason for the refusal I see in my MT4 journal? If so, what is the purpose of this rule? Seems like a good idea to me for people to be able to test signals in a demo, regardless if the signal is 'real' or 'demo'. So what am I missing here? Why is that a bad idea?

You are correct: you cannot connect a demo account to a real signal. That rule has actually been around for quite a while but only enforced as of a couple of months ago. As for why - you would need to ask an admin that question sorry. I'm sure they have their reasons for it...?
Yeah, this makes sense now. Weird that you can't run a real signal on a demo account to test results under a set balance on a particular broker. Maybe it throws off MQL5.com's accounting for their signal ranking and would be too easy for a provider to misrepresent their popularity.
Oh well, just going to have to calculate and trust then, huh?

I am trying to subscribe to a Free signal <Deleted>for starts.
I am logged into MQL via FXTMs trading platform. When I click "Subscribe", it requests for my MQL Community password and I correctly input it, nothing happens.
All I get is a "Signal - subscription/renewal prohibited" reply in Journal section.
Can someone please help with this? Am I doing anything wrong?
