Pending orders and STOP LEVEL

New comment
 
It applies to open price of a pending order.

Does StopLevel also apply also to SL TP price?

If yes - why?? Isn't it a bug??
 
Could you, please, provide us with the example of prices (open, SL, TP) and StopLevel?
 
Here you are:
2006.08.08 10:25:15 2006.08.07 13:00  w10 EURUSD,H1: Error = invalid stops price(1.2839) Bid(1.2853) Ask(1.2855) cmd: 2 open(1.2853) SL(1.2826) tp(1.2845)



SellLimit:

Market: 1.2853

price: 1.2839 >> 14 pips difference
SL 1.2826 >> 27 pips
TP 1.2845 >> 8 pips

My broker has 10 pips StopLevel so it can only be TP.

This is evident BUG!

 
Whats the sense of checking TP when the open price of pending order is far from current market price (even 100)?
 
HEH I got it.............................................

My TP is too small - 6 pips.

Theres no better way of finding own bugs than read self post on public forum :))

Have a nice day guys!!
 
Problem comes back...

2006.08.08 22:40:00 2006.08.07 15:00 w12 EURUSD,H1: Error = invalid stops

Open price(1.2845)
Bid(1.2855)
Ask(1.2857)
cmd: OP_BUYLIMIT
TP(1.2855)
SL(1.2830)

Edit: I've changed my TP to 11pips and it works. Whats the reason of this? >> My stoplevel is 10.

If your Stop Level is 10, you should set Take Profit and Stop Loss to at least 11 pips differing from the open price.
 
what the client terminal build?
 
I guess its 195 - NorthFinance Demo. I'll check it at home.

So StopLevel 5 imply 6 pips difference for each of this three values:
- market >> open price
- open price >> TP
- open price >> SL

Are you sure about that?
 
I found that I have to put in my stop entry orders (sell stop/buystop) atleast STOPLEVEL+1 pip away from the current bid/ask.
 
Making it manually 5pips works fine for each of those three values... :/
