about slippage
dealer is supposed to honor the price that you sent him, if the price moves away
by a pip or two by the time he gets your order he can't fullfil your order and
it is rejected for repricing. Slippage allows fullfil your price in a certain range
you specify. So slippage of 3 will allow fullfil you price plus minus 3 pips. It's
up to you how much you want him to deviate from the price. 10 is pretty high. I
never had a problem with 2-3 pips slippage. you can't specify slippage only one
way, so make it tight. If it is rejected just resend the order.
Hello!
Is there difference between 3 and 5 or 4 and 2 digits broker. Do I have to multiply slippage with 10 if I have 3 or 5 digit broker?

What is slippage mean,can it be -? just like -3,-5, Or it must be bigger than 0?
If Bid=1.0140
the: OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_SELL,Lots(),Bid,5,Bid+SL*Point,Bid-TP*Point,tdcomment,magic,0,Red);
will be trade from 1.0135 to 1.0145, Or will be trade from 1.0140 to 1.0145?
I let slippage=0, but in the live account, It often can not be traded.
Now I want let slippage=10 in the OP_SELL, and let slippage=-10 in the OP_BUY.
