Copy Trading

[Jarred Pretzer]

I signed up for copy trading and linked it with my account on MT4. I see the trader placed trades but didn't place any on my account. 

What do I do?

Check the procedure about how to subscribe once again (in case you missed something) -

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

The errors are written in the logs so

• check logs/journal of Metatrader, and
• if you are using MQL5 VPS so - check VPS logs/journal

Thank you for the help.

Should my trades and results show up in real time on my account?
