Strategy Tester: Cannot Buy/Sell

I'm testing the LFH Trading Simulator. I am having trouble placing order's. I cannot drag and drop scripts and I can't manually strike either. I'm wondering if you have a method that can allow me to open order's while using the strategy tester in MT4. When I drag and drop nothing shows up on the chart to enter an order...


THANKS!

Ah, then I tried again and it would not longer open an order. The drag and drop method does not open an order for me. I will keep trying.

There is no drag and drop, all you do is pause the tester, move the Object representing the type of trade you want to the position where you want it placed, do the same with SL & TP if you wish, then press f12, if this doesn't work you may have placed Open, TP or SL too close to current price.
