Auto trading cannot be turned on... no active signals?

Postby firemag » 26 Oct 2017

I am setting up a new account under Interactive Brokers (Family/Friends account). I set up the symbol mapping and added a chart and strategy to the chart. I placed a manual order from that chart via Chart Trader to get in sync with the strategy. The trade went to IB correctly and showed up on the account. But when I tried to turn on trade automation I got this error message:

What am I doing wrong?

Nevermind... feeling kind of silly. I had forgotten to turn the strategy on. :shock:

All's good now. :)
