EA only makes trade when I re-open Metatrader

Quoting Galation

Disliked

I feel like such a noob asking this question but when I have my EA running on my chart, it doesn't actively open up a trade, even though all entry conditions are met. It will only enter a trade when I exit meta trader and then open meta trader back up.

It's almost as Meta Trader is only reading the EA on Meta Trader start-up.

There are no errors in journal.

So my question is, why is it doing this, and what would a potential solution be?

Thanks all
