Error 10015 with a sell limit order

[ThiagoMoreira]

Hello

I am trying to develop an EA that uses the sell limit order. However I am facing error 10015 when the EA sends the order.

Can anyone help me find my error?

I changed the names of the variables to make the code easier to understand.

I will attach the image with the sales order entry parameters.

Thank you.

if(PositionsTotal() == 0 && OrdersTotal() == 0){
         double SL_to_take = NormalizeDouble(PriceTop-PriceBottom, _Digits);
         
         double half_SL_to_take = NormalizeDouble(SL_to_take / 2, _Digits);
         
         double sell = NormalizeDouble(PriceBottom + half_SL_to_take,_Digits);
                      
         double sl = NormalizeDouble(PriceTop,_Digits);
         
         double SL_in_Point = NormalizeDouble((sl - sell) / _Point,0);
         
         double SL_in_Digits = NormalizeDouble((sl - sell),_Digits);
               
         double tp  = NormalizeDouble(sell-(SL_in_Digits),_Digits);
         
                
         trade.SellLimit(size_of_lots(SL_in_Digits), sell, _Symbol, sl, tp, ORDER_TIME_GTC,0,0);




         //"size_of_lots(SL_in_Digits)" calculates the lot size according to the stop size in points.

Looks like the limit price is below the bid. Check PriceTop/Bottom.

Thanks for the reply lippmaje.

I also thought about it but the limit price is above the bid.

I'll leave another print with the prices for analysis.

No idea. But since it's running in the tester you're able to reproduce the issue and add debug information like bid, ask etc.

for sell stop, price should be below than current price

No, it's not like this: Basic Principles - Trading Operations

Freeze levels need to be checked. And it is always useful to display two lines on the chart: the 'Bid' line and the 'Ask' line.
