Why was my signal rejected?

Every refused auto-trade shows its reason on the signal card, with a link to where you fix it.

When auto-trading refuses a signal, its card on the Signals page says why, once per account, for example "Account Deriv Demo: 0.8 lots is below the broker's minimum of 4 for Volatility 50 Index, no order was sent." Most reasons come with a button that opens the place to fix it.

Reasons and what to do

Reason on the cardWhat to do
The account does not list the instrumentSet its exact name in the channel's Symbol mapping; check the Symbol preview below it
The account lists it under more than one namePick the one to trade in the Symbol mapping
Lot below the broker's minimumRaise Fixed Lots, or turn on Raise to the broker minimum
Lot size could not be calculatedUse Fixed Lots for now; risk-based sizing needs the broker's contract data
Risk guard blocked the tradeYour own limits (open trades, risk per trade) were reached
The signal was incompleteMissing or impossible stop-loss, take-profit or entry. PipSync never trades without a stop-loss and take-profit
Your plan does not allow this tradeAuto-trading or a plan limit; see Plans
The account was inactive or unavailableOpen Trading Accounts and check that it is switched on and connected
Market closed, not enough margin, broker rejectedShown as the broker reported it

The AI score is never the reason. It only marks signals as approved; it does not decide whether a trade is placed, so changing the auto-approval threshold does not change refusals. See What is the AI score on a signal?.

To filter the list to refused signals, open Signals and set the status filter to Rejected.
