EA Submission Issue

[Ricardo Sdoya]

Hi Traders, I've written my first EA, which is just an account protector - it will be free. The problem is that I can't submit it because it can't open trades - it only closes them. test on EURUSD,H1 (netting) there are no trading operations test on XAUUSD,D1 (netting) there are no trading operations test on GBPUSD,M30 (netting) there are no trading operations test on EURUSD,M1 (netting) there are no trading operations

So, how have other people managed to do it?

Is there a way to submit it for manual moderation?

I'd really appreciate any help.

Thanks!

There is one blog post describing some issues and how to fix them.
For example:

There are no trading operations

This error is specific for expert advisers only. The rule is: expert advisers must trade. If your robot should be used only on a specific symbol timeframe, then here is what MetaQuotes say: "Products can not apply restrictions. All limitations should be marked as recommendations in the product description." If your robot does not trade by design (a helper tool, for example), choose approriate category ("Utilities") in the product properties.

And there is one discussion thread where the users share the experience with it (related to coding for example):
