Hi,
I think I'm having the same problem as you! I posted something today (11th Feb) along the same lines as you, but I see you've been waiting a long time for a reply! Maybe these people are too technical for us :-)
If you find the answer, or know of a practical how-to-use tutorial for MT4, then please let me know.
Thanks,
Mike

What is the current Ask price at the time of placing the limit order? The limit price for a buy must be less than Ask - stoplevel*Point or you will get "invalid" stops.
I think you should use Buy Stop order this case, because EURUSD price now is about 1.29.
