Why is my EA not executing any trades?

Modified on Tue, 3 Dec, 2024 at 10:17 PM

In order for an Expert Advisor (EA) to function properly in MetaTrader 4, you need to enable the feature by clicking the ‘Auto Trading’ button in the trading terminal. Make sure the button is green so that the EA can execute its trading strategy.


After dragging the EA onto the chart, click the ‘Auto Trading’ button on the toolbar.



When the button turns green, it means that automated trading has been successfully enabled and the EA can start executing its trading strategy.
