Enable code debugging and test step by step. 

Thanks for your response.

I Do debugging and found that incorrect SL due to high spread caused this problem.

The code inside the Expert Advisor is correct - but if at the moment of placing the price makes a strong movement, the POSITION will not be opened.

I think this section should modified for crypo:


//--- tuning for 3 or 5 digits
   int digits_adjust=1;
   if(m_symbol.Digits()==3 || m_symbol.Digits()==5)
      digits_adjust=10;
   m_adjusted_point=m_symbol.Point()*digits_adjust;

   ExtStopLoss    = InpStopLoss     * m_adjusted_point;
   ExtTakeProfit  = InpTakeProfit   * m_adjusted_point;
   ExtTrailingStop= InpTrailingStop * m_adjusted_point;
   ExtTrailingStep= InpTrailingStep * m_adjusted_point;


When I use RISK for deteminig lot I see getpointer error and i have to use fix LOT:

//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| Lots or risk in percent for a deal from a free margin            |
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
bool LotsOrRisk(const double lots,const double risk,const int digits_adjust)
  {
   if(lots<0.0 && risk<0.0)
     {
      Print(__FUNCTION__,", ERROR: Parameter (\"lots\" or \"risk\") can't be less than zero");
      return(false);
     }
   if(lots==0.0 && risk==0.0)
     {
      Print(__FUNCTION__,", ERROR: Trade is impossible: You have set \"lots\" == 0.0 and \"risk\" == 0.0");
      return(false);
     }
   if(lots>0.0 && risk>0.0)
     {
      Print(__FUNCTION__,", ERROR: Trade is impossible: You have set \"lots\" > 0.0 and \"risk\" > 0.0");
      return(false);
     }
   if(lots>0.0)
     {
      string err_text="";
      if(!CheckVolumeValue(lots,err_text))
        {
         Print(__FUNCTION__,", ERROR: ",err_text);
         return(false);
        }
     }
   else
      if(risk>0.0)
        {
         if(m_money!=NULL)
            delete m_money;
         m_money=new CMoneyFixedMargin;
         if(m_money!=NULL)
           {
            if(!m_money.Init(GetPointer(m_symbol),Period(),m_symbol.Point()*digits_adjust))
               return(false);
            m_money.Percent(risk);
           }
         else
           {
            Print(__FUNCTION__,", ERROR: Object CMoneyFixedMargin is NULL");
            return(false);
           }
        }

You see your mistake - think: what value of risk are you setting?

Remark: if you are using instruments with a HUGE spread, you must set an appropriate Stop Loss.

Always remember - there are TWO prices: Ask and Bid.

Thanks for your response. every thing is correct in expert. problems are due to insufficient balance and incorrect SL due to hug spread.

  I set 1% risk for 500$ Balance. leverage set to 100. these errors apears:

OpenBuy, ERROR: method CheckOpenLong 

OpenSell, ERROR: method CheckOpenShort

it means this balance is not sufficient for opening position with minimum lot size in BTC?

is it true ?

You found your mistake. Now think about how you can correct your mistake.

Hello, again 

Thank you very much for responding , and I am very sorry for the mess I did , I changed the code a little from my last post , and It still does not close position , and I set stoploss = 0
