Ensure that:
- The instrument is available for trading at the broker. If it is not possible to place any trades on it during market hours, it means that trading is disabled on that instrument. In an attempt to place a trade, the entry [Trade is disabled] then appears in the Log tab in the Terminal.
- Applies to some accounts - check whether you use an instrument with a dot at the end of the name (e.g. EURUSD.). Some accounts have two lists of currency pairs - names with and without a dot, e.g. EURUSD. and EURUSD - you can then trade on those with a dot in the name.
