Why do I get invalid price error !!!

 

Hi

Just a thought come to mind, if Bid has moved below SELL STOP Price on the very next bar, could that cause this error !!!

MF 0 14:50:44.317 AKT Algo v1.0 (US30,M5) 2021.10.01 04:05:00   capitalToRisk[49.92] pRiskPerTrade[0.010] slPoints[165] optimumLot[3.000000]

FK 0 14:50:44.318 AKT Algo v1.0 (US30,M5) 2021.10.01 04:05:00   CTradeAKT::OrderSend: SELL STOP 3.00 US30 at 33857.5 sl: 33874.0 tp: 33771.4 [invalid price]

Any clues why I am getting invalid price error, yet ...

SL [33874.0] - SellStop [33857.5] = 16.5 positive pips || SellStop [33857.5] - TP 33771.4  = 86.1 positive pips

I am not sure, if I need to provide any additional information, so please let me know if any more information is needed.

regards.

Check the specification of the symbol - there is a suspicion that the price may end in either .5 or .0 - for example 33771.5 or 33771.0

Thanks Vladimir

I figured out, it was caused by Bid price being below the StopSell price ... as it took the trades where this was not true.

for _Digits, I had already taken care for find Symbol Digits and Normalize it before sending the order.
