Invalid stops message when modifying orders

[Martin Meinke]

Hi guys,

 

I've got an expert advisor creating orders with:

request.action= TRADE_ACTION_PENDING;

I later modify those pending orders using:

request.action= TRADE_ACTION_MODIFY;

for some reason I keep getting messages like this:

2012.10.01 01:15:55	Trades	'517505': order #2345441 buy stop 0.10 / 0.10 EURUSD at 1.28128 placed
2012.10.01 01:15:56	Trades	'517505': failed modify order #2345441 buy stop 0.10 EURUSD at 1.28128 sl: 1.28098 tp: 1.28598 -> 1.28112, sl: 1.28082 tp: 1.28582 [Invalid stops]


Thanks in advance!

I figured out this doesn't happen on MetaQuotes Demo account, only on ActivTrades Demo Account!

Maybe ActiveTrades stoplevel is higher than MetaQuotes stoplevel.

Even if im using sl and tp about 1ctfrom the price this is happening

Look at the code of this guy: https://www.mql5.com/en/articles/442 

He modifies his orders in order to set the  trailing stops (request.action=TRADE_ACTION_SLTP;)... the system works well.

I tried to modify the code for my own EAs, but Im having the same errors you are experiencing... :(
