Auto trading button

 

I have been trying to set up a trade copy robot between 2 different accounts. When I make a trade the receiver account shows this error message failed with error code #10027.

I have searched the community for a solution and i get I need to turn auto trading. Problem is I don't have this option where its supposed to be.

Any ideas how to fix this?
