Hello Guys,
I have two demos accounts with oanda and fxcm. I niether case the order gets submitted, and GetLastError() returns 130, with means worn stop loss.
ERR_INVALID_STOPS | 130 | Invalid stops. |
If I change to
ticket=OrderSend(Symbol(),OP_ BUY,Lots,Ask,3,1.4,1.5,"my EA",16384,0,Green);
I still get the same error.
