You need to upload the code or at least the OrderSend( ) line and the SL & TP calculations to give you the right answer !.

Where are these calculated?
Very confused!!!
Something is hidden.
seems you are using the code of MT5 in mt4

you're right...
it is mql5 command

mrequest.action = TRADE_ACTION_DEAL; // Immediate order execution mrequest.price = NormalizeDouble(Ask,_Digits); // Lastest Ask price mrequest.sl = StopLoss; // Stop Loss mrequest.tp = TakeProfit; // Take Profit mrequest.symbol = _Symbol; // Symbol mrequest.volume = Lot; // Number of lots to trade mrequest.magic = 0; // Magic Number mrequest.type = ORDER_TYPE_BUY; // Buy Order mrequest.type_filling = ORDER_FILLING_FOK; // Order execution type mrequest.deviation=5; // Deviation from current price return(OrderSend(mrequest,mresult)); // Send order ---
Stop loss and take profit in the MqlRequest struct are prices, not a number of points or pips.
sl | Stop Loss price in case of the unfavorable price movement |
tp | Take Profit price in the case of the favorable price movement |
One of them must be below, other must be above the order price (depending on order type - buy or sell).

Good afternoon!

Best regards
