OrderSend error 10016 invalid stops

[chinaski]

Hello,

get this error, don't know why: 

2012.08.10 17:43:22 Core 1 2012.07.05 23:05:00   Invalid stops reply code=10016 symbol=EURUSD action=1 volume=0.1600000 price=0.0000000 sl=0.0000000 tp=0.0000000 filling=0

The string above dumps a MqlTradeRequest structure. As you can see, stops are not invalid. 

 

Thank you for help

Can you write to ServiceDesk and provide all details?

Hello Rosh,

so far never got answer from desk. Need a quick solution. This happens only within backtest.

When placing same order from function init of EA and attach EA to same symbol, no error.

 Invalid stops -> but stop =0.0. This is not invalid...

Hello,

i made a mistake in MqlTradeRequest as i set MqlTradeRequest.action = TRADE_ACTION_PENDING without a given price. 

I guess this could be the reason for error.

Try using the built in Trade class instead of MqlTradeRequest.

i am using ctrade and i receive the same error... the SL is quite high... still is not executed. error: 10016

sometimes is executed - sometimes is not... and the script gets stuck (as coded, in a while loop).

please advise.

Hi Calin, you don't appear to be banned, you wouldn't be able to post in the forum if you were. What makes you think you are banned mate?

Calin Trainer:

Stuart: i cannot open the mql5.com from my browser anymore, unless i use a special VPN connection to spoof my IP.

I say again, you have NOT been banned (yet!). If you were banned, no amount of "IP Spoofing" would let you post under your name on this forum. Plus your name would appear with a strike through it to show you have been banned (which it doesn't). It sounds to me like your settings need to be adjusted. Go into your profile, click settings->privacy and unclick all of the "Binding to IP" checkboxes. That should fix that problem.

Now as for your threatening and abusive language in your last post, that will NOT BE TOLERATED against ANY user, be they a moderator or not. Please consider this you first and final warning.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Mate, I still receive the message from browser on https://www.mql5.com/en/ (if I do not use the TOR - which still seems to be a great idea):
