If my document is on text reflow and I'm placing a lot of text, why is it only placing on the first page (with the red arrow - I can manualy paste it on each next page, but there's for sure a way to get it automacaly on all pages!)
Please reply!

When your document has no primary text frames on the master/parent page, you have hold the shift key, when you place the text.

it DOES have primary text frames.

when I place a large text file, I get only  the beginning (until the paragraph style which is on 'next page') and then the red arrow in the corner.

Red arrow is text overflow and can be caused by a number of things, like a large indent or keep options with text, or a number of other issues, like a really large table cell.

 

Can you share the document either here or privately and we could take a look if you like. It can be tricky to track down why it's oversetting.

You can set it to autoflow by clicking the OutPort at the bottom right - then Shift Click on the next page text frame

Alternatively you can use Alt click to go frame by frame

 

You can use Smart Text reflow if you have your document setup
