EA stays in "Waiting for tick" mode

[fortham]

Hi all. I am new here but very keen to learn. I am sorry if the question is too simple to answer. As a start I have downloaded an EA from the "examples" tab in this website and tried to implement the EA as-is. However, after loading the EA on the chart, it stays stuck in the "waiting for tick" mode... I must be missing something. Would anybody care to help me?

Thank you.
