Please help with "symbol EURUSD has inconsistent trade mode" problem?

Sergey Golubev 2019.01.30 06:21 #1

There are two reasons about "skipped as no symbol found" error:

no any symbol found;
more than one symbol found.

You can check here: Frequently Asked Questions about the Signals service -

The Provider has trading symbol called GOLD, and my broker has the same instrument, but it is called XAUUSD. Are trades on GOLD copied to XAUUSD in that case?

If a Subscriber's account has a symbol with the same name as the one on the Provider's account, and trading is fully allowed for the symbol, trades will be copied for this symbol. If trading is allowed partially or disabled for the found symbol, this symbol is considered inappropriate for copying, and the system will continue to search for a suitable symbol:

On the Subscriber's account, the system searches for all symbols with the names coinciding with the Provider's symbol by the first 6 characters. For example, EURUSD == EURUSDxxx == EURUSDyyy.
Full permission to perform trading is checked for each detected symbol. If trading is allowed partially or completely forbidden, such a symbol is discarded.
Margin calculation type is checked for each remaining symbol - if it is Forex, a symbol is considered to be suitable. Symbols of CFD, Futures or other calculation types are discarded.
If no symbols remain after conducting all the checks or more than one symbol is found, it is considered that a symbol mapping attempt has failed and it is impossible to copy Provider's trades for that symbol.
If one suitable symbol is found, it is used for copying Provider's trades.

Your broker uses a non common EURUSD suffix (.lmx), so this can be the problem.

Use another broker for copying the signal.

Ask the signal provider for suggested broker/server setups.
