Newbie with quick muliplication problem
First guess I have is that you need to normalize the price data to match that of the broker's price feed.
Try:
ll2= NormalizeDouble(ll - X,Digits); // this works in an order!!! ll2= NormalizeDouble(ll - (X*0.25),Digits); // this doesn’t work in an order?
Add a Print() call to debug.
ll2= NormalizeDouble(ll - (X*0.25),Digits); // this doesn’t work in an order? Print("hh ",hh," ll ",ll," ll2 ",ll2," x ",x," (x*0.25) ",x*0.25);

It worked. I tried normalizing before, but I did it wrong. Your example solved the problem.
Thanks a million!!
Can anyone tell me why the line of code in Green works, but when I try to multiply X by 0.25 (Red Code) then my order does not get placed?
double hh;
double ll;
double ll2;
double X;
//---- Set Variables
hh=High[iHighest(NULL,0,MODE_HIGH,Entry,0)];
ll=Low[iLowest(NULL,0,MODE_LOW,Entry,0)];
X = (hh-ll);
ll2= (ll - X); // this works in an order!!!
ll2= (ll – (X*0.25)); // this doesn’t work in an order?
if (OrderMagicNumber() == NULL) OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_SELLSTOP, 0.10,ll2,3,0,0,"My order #2",16384,0,Red);
