OK I GIVE UP WHY WON'T THIS WORK
Can't get this order send to work, keep getting error 130 invalid stops
OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUY,lots, High[1],3, NormalizeDouble(High[1]-SL*Point,Digits),
NormalizeDouble(High[1] + TP*Point,Digits),"manage",703,0,Blue);
Print out values and I get:2009.06.03 12:17:50 2009.05.22 00:00 MANAGER EURUSD,H4: SL = 1.38943 TP = 1.39343 ENTRY = 1.39143
Clearly it is a buy, the Sl is well below the spread, the TP is well above the spread, the digits are correct.
Out of frustration I deleted the SL and TP and made them 0, when I do that I get 138 requote error.
I don't really know what that means, I had assumed it was a change in price which made the Order Send parameters out of
range that doesn't seem to be the case here since the orders are sent at the open of new candles based on the close of the previous candle so variance should be nil.
Any ideas, thoughts, suggestions, and/or correct answer deeply appreciated.

You cannot execute a buy with High[1] quote price. Replace it with Ask or make it a pending order.

Why do you use High[1] as an open price for order? you should use current price (Ask) + slippage at max. I think this is wrong.
Hope that helps.
