Problem Subscribing

Ed Owens 2016.05.18 13:35

Why is it that when I try to subscribe to signals in my mt4 platform, when I click 'subscribe' it does nothing and in the journal it says 'subscription prohibited'.

Any advice would be appreciated!

It depends on many reasons incl broker's limitation.

Just some of the reasons for example:

Some Signals not showing in the signals list on certain live accounts

Demo account can subscribe to "demo" signals and real signals, and real account to "real" signals. Signal based on the real account available only for paid subscription.

And according to the signals in signal tab... so they (signals in Metatrader) are sorted accodring to the rating, and they are placed to your tab based on the compatibility with your broker/s account.

So, if you do not see your desirable signal to subscribe (or if you do not have the signal tab at all) - ask the broker (do they support the signals or not), and if yes so use Signal webpage here to subscribe.

Hy all,

first of all, sorry if i don't post on the good place.

I would like to know please :

- is it possible to subscribe onto a paid signal with a demo account ?

- is it possible to transfert this paid signal onto a live account ? Will i have to pay again ?

- if i have subscribed onto a paid signal with demo or live account, and then decide to open VPS, once my MT4 platforms are transfered, will i have to pay again my subscription to the signal to make it works on the VPS ?

Many thanks for your help

Regards

DCP.

1. Yes

2. There is a move option for signal subscriptions, so yes you should be able to move your subscription from the demo account to the real one, without paying again in the same subscription period.
