Help to error code 130 (Invalid stop)

New comment
 

Could someone please help fix the error code 130?

When I run a tester it was okay to get a result without any error code.

But I had an error code 130 when it attached to chart and runing real time with the demo account.

While running the tester, for example, the journal showed "opened price : 1.30003, stoploss : 1.29503, takeprofit : 1.30503 - OK".

However during real time runing with M5 EUR:USD chart of demo account I had an "Error opening SELL order : 130" and then could not open any order.

extern double TakeProfit = 500;
extern double StopLoss = 500;
extern double Lots = 0.1;
extern double TrailingStop =500;

   total=OrdersTotal();
   if(total<1) 

   ticket=OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUY,Lots,Ask,30,Ask-StopLoss*Point,Ask+TakeProfit*Point,"macd",16384,0,Green);
   ticket=OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_SELL,Lots,Bid,30,Bid+StopLoss*Point,Bid-TakeProfit*Point,"macd",16384,0,Red);


// had an "Error opening SELL order : 130" then change stop loss to 0 but still same error again

   ticket=OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUY,Lots,Ask,30,0,Ask+TakeProfit*Point,"ma",16384,0,Green);
   ticket=OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_SELL,Lots,Bid,30,0,Bid-TakeProfit*Point,"ma",16384,0,Red);

Thanks for your help!!!

Regards,

What did the documentation tell you when you looked up Error 130 ?

What did search tell you when you searched for Error 130 ?

Try this: ECN

Thanks Raptor for your reply... Curretly i do not know GFT is ECN or not and I will confirm.

 
You'd solve your problem faster by testing OrderSend with with SL and Tp at 0.

Why do you care? Just code it for ECN and it works on any broker.
