Reply To: FTMO Robot – Not placing trades

[Marin Stoyanov]

Hey Tanyeem,

You need to enable the Algo-trading before attaching the Robot to the chart. There two “algotrading” options:

1. Tools -> Options -> “Expert Advisors” tab. “Enable algorithmic trading” checkbox.
2. There is an “Algo Trading” button int the middle of the MetaTrader’s toolbar. It must be on before attaching the robot.

Another possibility is the broker to suspend trading due to swap calculations. It usually happens around midnight for several minutes.
