Pending Order not working

New comment
 

Good Afternoon,

Can someone please help me with the order below ?

This is the structure of my order. The script has no problem to run but when market reaches the price, the order is not triggered.

It is not clear to me if mrequest.stoplimit=1.25165 (above price) is correct or the number must be below 1.25155 (below price) 

Thank you. 

mrequest.action=TRADE_ACTION_PENDING;
mrequest.symbol=_Symbol;
mrequest.volume=1;
mrequest.price=1.25160;
mrequest.stoplimit=1.25165;
mrequest.sl=1.25150;
mrequest.tp=1.25220;
mrequest.type=ORDER_TYPE_BUY_LIMIT;
mrequest.type_filling=ORDER_FILLING_FOK;
mrequest.type_time=ORDER_TIME_GTC;
mrequest.comment="BUY LIMIT";

Are you trying to send a ORDER_TYPE_BUY_LIMIT or ORDER_TYPE_BUY_STOP_LIMIT ?

Buy limit orders do not have a trigger price ...

It is ORDER_TYPE_BUY_LIMIT;

Unfortunatelly it is not clear to me the function of mrequest.stoplimit in this context.

Do you mind if I kindly ask you for an example ?

Sure ... mrequest.stoplimit has absolutely no effect on ORDER_TYPE_BUY_LIMIT.

You can simply delete it from your request.
