Subscribed to signal but trades are not working when trader is active

 

Hi all,


I have subscribed to a signal trader and as I subscribed a couple of trades started. Since then (last week) no new trades have become active even though it says the trader was active 4 hours ago. 

This is message I am getting from logs

FIRST DAY WHEN TRADES WORKED:

LL 0 08:28:16.517 Tester Cloud servers switched off
HS 0 08:28:47.588 Tester MQL5 Cloud Server "MQL5 Cloud Europe" found

CD 0 22:07:22.440 Tester Cloud servers switched off
LK 0 22:31:24.141 Tester Cloud servers switched off
Every day since then

FL 0 05:01:48.062 Tester Cloud servers switched off

Thanks in advance

 

Strategy tester and cloud servers have nothing to do with signal copying.

You are looking at the wrong place...

Thanks Eleni

The team has pointed out the issue. The signal trader is making trades of 200 lots. While my broker only allows for lots of 100. 

Can you recco a fix for this? Do you have a broker who you reccomend I should use? Or a way for me to see what broker the signal trader uses so I can use that one too? 


Thanks

I think you are referring to the warning message "the signal provider's broker has a maximum trade size of 200 lots, while your broker has a maximum trade size of 100 lots".

That's not a problem, only a warning.

I doubt that the signal provider opens trades of 200 lots.

So, once again...
