EA for MT5. I can NOT get a simple Generate EA to perform test trades. At all. 20+ attempts.

 

Hi there, I started with a complex strategy and it would not trade in any tests.

So I made simpler ones, right down to a simple average trader.  1 indicator, 1 symbol. (XRPBTC)

I didn't play with any settings on these later attempts, just ran the generate, added the most basic things I could, and I can't get it to trade under test runs.  At all.


Anyone able to help?  Perhaps you have a discord we can do a quick voice  chat on and get me past this extremely frustrating first step?

With Kind Regards

Do you have void OnTick() method?
 

Make sure to check out your logs in the expert and the logs shown in the Journal. Any errors should give you an indication where to look.

If nothing helps you can check out the folder "C:\Users\<Username>\AppData\Roaming\MetaQuotes\Tester\<Account-Id>\Agent-<localhost-port>\logs
