{quote} @MianAamer -- near the top of the Input settings you'll see one called "allow Trading". Make sure that is set to 'true'.
Thanks @robots4me, it is set to 'true'

@mrdfx -- I've been running the EA for a little over a day and it seems to working (28 pairs, M30 time frame), though not too many trades. I understand the meaning of most of the columns -- except for 'Age'. Sorry if this has already been covered, but I've been searching and can't find an explanation. My 'Age' column is only gray cells, whereas the other columns are a mix of red, green, or gray. What is the purpose of the 'Age' column -- is it a filter and can it be disabled? Thanks...
robots4me You will only get a signals once all the criteria of the strategy match, so some days there might be no signals, and other days many, it all depends on the market.

As for age that is a filter for the age of the signal. In the inputs you can select how long after a new signal appears it remains valid. If you set 1 then after 1 hr the signal will be invalid.

Pips works the same way but counting in pips instead of hrs.

@mrdfx

Latest version of EA downloaded and installed .

1. EA ver 1.26 shows MA 15. Rules state to use EMA 10
2. EU & EG trade setups are valid, but EA does not show validity in column
3. EA did not send out alert, although alert setting is on true

Please look into these points.

I've never used the EA for auto trading, but use it for the alerts and then do manual trading. All the time, the EA responded correctly by showing and giving alerts. Previous version did work correctly.

Please advise which MA is correct? MA 15 as per EA or EMA 10 as per the rules.

MA 15 is a display issue, the calculation is using ma 10.

If it does not say Buy or Sell it is not valid.

These issues were in the original code and has not been fixed.

Reasons for not valid trades: reentry filter, spread or time.

These are not displayed in the overview.

@chrisdk2017 -- I was able to build the EA from the Github sources. However, it seems to be missing that nice, bluish statistics window and also the listing of current positions. Would you consider sharing the source for those features and any bug fixes you've made. I like the way the EA is performing and if I can help with any improvements then I would, of course, share those with whoever was interested. Thanks...

@chrisdk2017 -- yes, it builds and works. It was missing one file, though -- AnalyseSymbol.mqh -- which I grabbed from the GitHub sources. I'm a very happy camper -- thank you...

A question about SL and TP -- sorry if this has been addressed in an earlier post. Are the SL and TP "hidden" -- i.e. implemented only while the EA is executing (and not registered with the broker)? The reason I ask is because the 'Trade' tab shows the SL and TP as '0' for open positions.

Hidden, yes.
@chrisdk2017 -- thanks for your answer.

Another question -- I'd like to move the EA to another account but there are still a number of open positions. If I set ''allow Trading" to 'false' will the EA continue to manage the open orders (i.e. SL and TP) without opening any new ones? If not, is there a way to gracefully shut things down without manually closing?

And another question -- as a US client I'm sort of limited to the number and types of accounts I can open. One of my accounts is with OANDA, which does not allow hedging and strictly follows FIFO rules. Do you know (or think) these constraints will affect the performance of the EA? I'm running it anyways and will learn shortly, I guess, but I was curious what you would say. Thanks very much...
