ibfx ea works on demo, not on live account?

 

My code runs fine on an ibfx demo account and on the live account history tester, but after opening a trade on the live account will not close or modify the order. Does anyone have experience or ideas about how to correct this problem?

 

What error messages are in the Journal &/or Experts tabs of the Terminal?

No error is generated. It is as if no order send or order modify is executed on the live account. Live account is a mini, back testing and demo are regular accounts, would that make a difference you are familiar with?
 

There could be a lot going on here. If no error code comes up, it sounds like your order close functions aren't even being fired. For example, if you fired off a close order with the wrong ticket number, or tried to close out more lots than the order has in it, you will get an error code saying such. You've checked all the obvious stuff right? you have the 'play' button on at the top? you have allow automatic trading turned on in the EA options? If yes, I'm afraid there is no other choice for you but to go through all your code and figure out why it isn't working.
