Issue with a Sell stop order !!

New comment
 

Hi,

I'm trying to make a very simple code that will send 2 pending orders one BUYSTOP and one SELLSTOP ORDER every thing is working fine with the BUYSTOP order but when it come to the SELLSTOP

order i get : 2016.03.22 23:56:10.883    TEST88 EURUSD,M15: Error opening SELLSTOP order : 0

i dont understand why it does that here is the code :

 if(Count==1 )
 {

ticket=OrderSend("EURUSD",OP_BUYSTOP,0.01,Ask+3*Point,0,0, clrGreen );
 
}
else
{

Print("Error opening BUYSTOP order :", GetLastError());
}
 
if (Count==1 )
 {
  ticket=OrderSend("EURUSD",OP_SELLSTOP,0.01, Bid-10*Point, 0,0,clrGreen);
 
}
else
{
 
Print("Error opening SELLSTOP order : ", GetLastError());
}

AM'i doing something wrong here i do not understand why it wont work i dont even have a special ERROR number like 130, 128 etc.. all i get is a 0 .

Any suggestion

 

Your print statements are executed if Count does not equal 1. They are not related to the OrderSends.

You should be getting error prints for both

 
You are looking at GLE when count != 1
if (Count==1 )
 {
  ticket=OrderSend("EURUSD",OP_SELLSTOP,0.01, Bid-10*Point, 0,0,clrGreen);
 
}
else
{
 
Print("Error opening SELLSTOP order : ", GetLastError());
}
Do NOT look at GLE unless you have an error.
if (Count==1 )
 {
  ticket=OrderSend("EURUSD",OP_SELLSTOP,0.01, Bid-10*Point, 0,0,clrGreen);
  if(ticket < 0) Print("Error opening SELLSTOP order : ", GetLastError());
}
 
Now i have a 130 ERROR : 2016.03.23 09:48:06.227    TEST88 EURUSD,M15: Error opening SELLSTOP order : 130
 at least it came out with a number instead of 0.
 
Now compare your call
 ticket=OrderSend("EURUSD",OP_SELLSTOP,0.01, Bid-10*Point, 0,0,clrGreen);
with the documentation
I'm pretty sure that a take profit of clrGreen is probably a

130
