If it is done so you should see smile face on the top right corner.

"allow automated trading" ... please note that there are two places to allow: MT5 options and during the attaching EA to the chart.

-----------------

How to check?
Try to backtest with your lot size (your settings) and your preferable deposit size. If EA is trading during the backtesting so it should work during the trading as well.
If any error (for example - EA is asking for some indicator which EA is using) so you will see it from the logs (same Metatrader ... just switch between the tabs to see the logs).
So, it is very easy to check during the backtesting about: it is workable with your settings/deposit size/broker, or not (and why of not).

Ya,  backtest is running.  is good.

 "allow automated trading" ... MT5 options and during the attaching EA to the chart.  .. DONE

..but there is ( no smile face or sad face  ) on the top right corner.

.... Dont know why is that. and dont know does the EA running or not..  but seems like doesnt.

 

  • If no smiling face so EA is disabled. 
  • If sad face so you attached EA to the chart, but autotrading is disabled.
  • if no face so you did not attach EA to the chart (or place EA's file to the wrong folder ...).

 

Example - 


-------------------------------------------------

and - 


 
Because ... I forgot ... there is no "smile/sad face" in MT5.
There is green/red color instead.
