Autotrading is always ON in MQL5 VPS.
And because of that you local Metatrader should have autotrading OFF after sucessful synchronization/migration (because EA should trade on VPS, and not on your local computer).
Hi Sergey,
thanks for reply, i unticked algo trading on mt5 and migrated again, still nothing, i am not getting an error message but the server is not placing a trade, i tested on the 1 min chart just to see if it would open trade but nothing, i dont understand this as i have tested many EA's before and the problem only seems to have started since i purchased 3 more months of virtual server

When you migrate your EA to the MQL5 VPS, trading is performed on the virtual server in the cloud and not locally in your MT4/5 terminal, so its normal that Auto Trading is disabled locally.
If your EA doesn't trade in the virtual server is another story, check for that the MQL5 VPS (right click in the Navigator window) >> Journal to see if the migration was succesful and you've got a message like:
If your EA requires DLL calls, will not work on MQL5 VPS.

Why does it say netting when logged on all of a sudden and It just keeps on waiting for update.
It seems that you are properly logged into your trading account, you either using wrong credentials or the investor password.

Close this "waiting for update" chart, and login to your trading account (always close the charts before switching between the trading accounts).
Login to your trading account which is using MQL5 VPS subscription.

I do not have MQL5 VPS now so I am using the screenshots uploaded by Eleni on the post #13 .
