Discussion of article "How to Subscribe to Trading Signals" - page 98

 
Thank you. I got it through a search...
 
if in the market overview there is no currency pair traded by the seller of the signal, it will not affect the work of the signal ? orders will still be opened and closed by the missing pair ?
 

hi moderator, how come my signal is disabled? my position in my real account was clear, and changed new positions. but the one listed here is still a long position. please help, thanks

I don't see any disabled signal.

 

Hi Everyone,

I read some discussion here in the forum, but I was not able to find the info I'm looking for.

I'm a very newbie in this community and more in general in trading. I was very curious about the Signal functionality and that's the reason I joined this community.

To make the long story short:

1) I open an account in MQL5 community

2) I open an account with XM broker (using the MT5 platform)

3) I made the LogIn in the Setting of the XM-MT5 platform (so that it recognize me as member of MQL5 community)

4) I deposit 30USD in my MQL5 account


But now it seems I'm not able to Purchase the signal I selected (with is for MT5 platform and XM-MT5 server). I don't understand why. (I have a Mac Book, but from what I understood, this should not be a problem...)


Can someone help me on this?

Thank you so much

Jacopo

If you don't have a Signal tab, down in the Toolbox window, probably you can't subscribe through your Macbook, if you do follow these instructions: https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/336422

 
Hi, when trying to subscribe in MT4, I select the payment method "MQL5", click and the download icon appears, which does not disappear anywhere and nothing else happens. Who has had this happen, what to do?
 
Hello. I am subscribed to the signal. everything was fine, but yesterday orders stopped copying.
 
Nobody really explains how the signal thing works. I finally somewhat figured it out: when you subscribe and enable signals in tools/options you are basically letting somebody else's program control your mt4/5 account. Big tip: do not run your own robots at the same time because you might have unwanted surprises like constant FIFO warnings out of the blue. Also no signal seller really says how much you should have in your account to properly trade it. The whole thing is NOT for newbies.

Unless you like having somebody else controlling your money I suggest you buy an EA or indicator instead.

I have made detailed instructions about subscribing to a signal. Your remarks may apply to many signal providers, but not to all.
