Step 7 — Enable the Strategy (What Happens When You Turn It On)

Enabling means “the strategy is allowed to trade.”

7.1 Enable on the Chart

After you click OK, you’ll return to the chart.

Now do this:

  1. Right-click chart → Strategies

  2. Find your strategy in the configured list

  3. Check Enabled (or click the enable checkbox)

  4. Click OK

What you should see:

The strategy turns “on” and begins its internal process.

Different strategies may show different status states:

  • ACTIVE / SCANNING = ready and waiting for setups

  • WARMUP = normal for some strategies (example: Pulse has a warmup period)

  • IN TRADE = it currently holds a position

  • DONE FOR DAY / SESSION COMPLETE = it reached its daily limit or completed its schedule

  • UNLICENSED = licensing issue (won’t trade)

✅ Success Indicator

Strategy is enabled (not gray), and you see a live status like SCANNING.

💡 Tip

If nothing happens immediately, that’s normal.

Strategies don’t “trade because you turned them on.” They trade when their conditions are met.
