Successful backtest but ea bot not taking any trades? mt5

New comment
 
Algo trading is on, DLL and Live trading selected, Blue hat in the corner of chart is on, no error messages and no messages in toolbox experts, tried removing EA and Reattaching, had successful backtesting but EA bot is not taking any trades. Why is this?

Your bot is broken.

Use the debugger or print out your variables, including _LastError and prices and find out why. Do you really expect us to debug your code for you?

Thank you for your reply.

I am using a free bot installed from the MQL5 market. Do these come with errors? also no errors are coming up to be able to debug

check the journal and expert tabs on the terminal window. errors are indicated by the red icon. if you have errors, then, report them to the author of the ea, and give full error comment and if it has a number, give this also.

Talk to the seller of the EA they all have their own thread - he must know better.
