ParticipantI did remove it, reinstalled the ea .. and it’s doing the same thing. 2 different pairs in the top corners.
What can I do it get these ea to work? It’s been 4 days and I still can’t get this ea’s to work at all.

ParticipantYou have selected XAUUSD (top left) as your chart, but are using the EA of USDCAD (top right). It can’t work like that. You need to take the EA of XAUUSD and drag it onto the chart. Each EA must be used on the associated chart. You can’t mix it.

ParticipantI have done that, as soon as I change pairs the top right stays the same

ParticipantYou have to open a new chart for each EA and add the appropriate EA. So for the USDCAD-EA open a chart with USDCAD M15 and load the correct EA. At the end, 8 CCharts should be open with the appropriate EA.

Participantwhy is my ftmo robot opening hedging positions in one pair? buy and sell with the same pair at the same position?
December 20, 2023 at 6:34 am #221599Alan Northam
ParticipantHi Tanyeem,
MT4 will use hedging if your broker allows hedging. MT5 can be setup for hedging or netting when it is installed. There is an option to select netting. You can ask your broker to switch your account to netting.

ParticipantIts been 1 week and none of the ea’s opened a single trade, I’m sure the ea’s are installed correctly I am testing many ea’s everyday..

What should I do ?

ParticipantDo you see a smiley face or a blue hat in the upper right corner of the chart? If not then check to see if the AutoTrading or AlgoTrading button is pressed. If the button is pressed and you don’t see a smiley face or a blue hat then you need to remove the EA and reinstall. Make sure the button is pressed before reinstalling the EA.

ParticipantYes, I have the blue hat

ParticipantOk, so far so good!
Next, I am assuming you are referring to the FTMO v5.1 robots.
Now, did you load the proper setfiles based upon the account size into the EA using the “Load” button while installing the EA?
For example: With a 25K account the 25K setfile should be loaded.

ParticipantYes I did that too,
Only parameters that I’ve changed is “Show indicators” turned to OFF

ParticipantThen I would have to say the EA’s are properly installed. I installed v5.1 two days ago on a FREE FTMO demo account and I already have one EA trade closed, with a loss, and 5 of the 8 EA’s have open trades.
Are you testing on Free FTMO demo account or FTMO Challenge?
Alan,
