Wrong. Check your return codes, and report your errors (including market prices and your variables). Don't look at GLE/LE unless you have an error. Don't just silence the compiler (MT5/MT4+strict), it is trying to help you.

Hi,
The only code I have is the retcode 10006 which just specifies the order was rejected. It doesn't go on to explain why it was rejected.
In my MT5 journal, there is nothing there but the word rejected. No code or anything else indicating a reason why.
Am I missing something here?
Thanks
Where in MT5 can I go to look at the results William?
If it's a folder with MT5, what's the folder called where I am able to get this information and then relay that back to you for further analysis?
In a follow-up to the previous post by William, since you mentioned using Python and not MQL, have a look at the documentation example for order_send.
Here is the section I am referring to ...
# check the execution result print("1. order_send(): by {} {} lots at {} with deviation={} points".format(symbol,lot,price,deviation)); if result.retcode != mt5.TRADE_RETCODE_DONE: print("2. order_send failed, retcode={}".format(result.retcode)) # request the result as a dictionary and display it element by element result_dict=result._asdict() for field in result_dict.keys(): print(" {}={}".format(field,result_dict[field])) # if this is a trading request structure, display it element by element as well if field=="request": traderequest_dict=result_dict[field]._asdict() for tradereq_filed in traderequest_dict: print(" traderequest: {}={}".format(tradereq_filed,traderequest_dict[tradereq_filed]))
Please note, that I do not code in Python so I will not be able to offer more explanation than this.

Sometimes my orders don't go through. They get rejected with no information as to why.
The only thing I have noticed is that from when the order was entered to when the order got rejected its always a time of 2 minutes and 10 seconds. Not sure why that is? It's like some sort of order rejection/cancellation if it takes longer than 2 minutes 10 seconds?
I was thinking one way to perhaps get around this issues is for my python script to perform a check to see if the order went through successfully and if not, do the order again.
How would I achieve this if it's possible?
Thanks
