1. There is a button to enable/disable EAs and indicators.

2. In the EA settings there is an option "allow EAs to trade".

In the properties of the EA placed on the chart you have to tick the box "allow EA to trade".
 
Thanks, I've got it... and another question, where is the best place to download historical data from... I read on the forum about a script that simulates from M1 to the right timeframes, should it be done ???

The history should be taken from the place where you trade.

Don't confuse the soft with the warm.

Simulation and real trading for tick history are different things

 

Dear Professionals, I found a useful Expert Advisor for setting virtual take and stop and trailing stops (attached). But virtual stop loss does not work correctly. Please help me to correct it. Or maybe someone has a good analogue?

I would like to give my thanks.
