I do some coding with the new spreadsheets. When I start to playback, arrows do appear where this formula would take a trade. However, I do not see these trades being executed. Also the Trade Activity Log stays empty.

I refer to the images below. Could you advise? Thank you for your support.

Thank you. I have checked all settings according to the info found at the page you provide.

- Trade > Trade Simulation On >> Checked
- Trade > Auto-trading Enabled >> Checked
- Study Settings: as pictured at image below

However, simulated trades are not being executed when value is TRUE. Please advise, thank you.

I have changed that setting now to No. However, trades are still not being executed. I am also testing on my live account, but there are also no trades being executed either. What do you advice?

There are other reasons for this explained here:

There is also a simple test procedure explained near the end of the section by setting the cells to TRUE and False manually to test the basic functioning. Please follow through that basic test procedure.
