This article aims to explain the reasons behind greyed-out stock symbols and what they mean for your trading activities.
Why are the stock symbols greyed out?
If the stock symbols are greyed out, it means the MT5 account isn't able to trade stocks as it hasn't as yet met stock trading requirements. To enable stock trading, please follow the steps outlined in the article: What are your stock trading requirements?
Once you have completed all requirements, the stock symbols will become active, and you'll be able to trade stocks on the account.
