    Unhappy Where can I Set "Allow Trading" Parameter on the FX Trading Station?

    Hello,

    I am setting up a couple of strategy with the FXCM marketscope. I want to test the strategy. The help says I have to set the parameter "Allow Trading" to Yes for my strategy to trade on historical data.

    However, I cannot find this parameter on the strategies properties dialog box. Where can I set this parameter to Yes? Please help!

    Regards,

    FxWisdom

    Hi,

    There are two kinds of expert advisors for the Marketscope: signals and strategies.
    The "Allow Trading" parameter, as well as other trading parameters, is available for strategies only. Signals have no this parameter as they cannot trade. They just generate and display signals.
    Most of signals on the fxcodebase site were converted to strategies. Could you please specify a signal that you use? So I could help you to find the appropriate strategy.
