Perfect Copy of working EA not making trades

 

So I have an EA I have dev'ed and its running fine and profiting etc.

But when I make a copy of it adding a "2" to the end of the filename before extension ".mq5"

and then test the exact copy it sits and does no trades?


Also having issues with strategy tester updating the list of EA's


Even my original stopped working for awhile until I ran a different working EA.

Upon running again it worked fine.

This leads me to think it might have something to do with the EA's being stored in RAM?

ITs very frustrating.


Please any IDEAS?
