Hi all,

I just bought a copy of FAP and for some reason it does not seem to be trading. I've read the guide and played around with some of the settings. I've seen it trade once when i accidently selected CONFIRM DLL FUNCTION. But it specifically says in the guide not to select that option.

Please help.

huh? something is severely not right with your setup. I suggest starting from scratch with af resh demo account (remove and reinstall the entire platform). Read the guide and make sure you attach it to the M1 chart on EUR/USD and DONT FORGET to input your authorization key (you get this from your FAPS members website) into the proper box in FAPS properties box.

I uninstalled MetaTrader and deleted the folder FXDD MetaTrader folder, so it was completely removed from my system. Did clean install and registered FAP. When i drag FAP into the EURUSD, H1 window it doesn't seem to trade. I've tried it with the other windows like GBPUSD and USDCAD and seems to start trading almost immediately. Am i doing something wrong?

Yes, you've got it on the wrong time frame (chart) FAPS is supposed to be ran on the M1 time frame. Open up a new EUR/USD chart and switch the time frame to M1 (look fro the M1 button at the top) and THEN attach FAPS to the chart.

Make sure you input your activation code too.
