what is your problem??? it work perfect to me.

Maybe you have problems with the software configuration.

In the terminal go to menu tools-options-experts advisors and there you have to activate the option "allow live tranding"..

I hope it works.

bye

 

try

if (OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUYSTOP,lot,uppergrid,3,0,0,"grid"+i,NULL,0,Lime) == -1)
OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_BUYLIMIT,lot,uppergrid,3,0,0,"grid"+i,NULL,0,Lime)
//same by sell
if (OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_SELLSTOP,lot,lowergrid,3,0,0,"grid"+i,NULL,0,Red) == -1)
OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_SELLLIMIT,lot,lowergrid,3,0,0,"grid"+i,NULL,0,Red);

didn't checked

my apologies. You were right.
 
  2. On ECN brokers you must orderSend with TP/SL==0, then orderModify
  3. Capture the return code from the orderSend and print it with GetLastError so you know WHY
