hi
I'm using this order:
and, when it does an order at the first time .... it does it correctly, but if just some secs behind it does another one (usually its like that), it doesnt do the order and breaks after the print(symbol info).
The symbol info gets the info, but I don't know why it breaks just after that. Does someone know whats happening here? why it breaks and python gives this error:
price = mt5.symbol_info_tick(symbol).ask
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'ask'
please help.
I'm using python 3.7
Use last_error() to get more information :
print("symbol_info_tick() failed, error code =",mt5.last_error())
"price": price,
"sl": price-(tp-price),
You buy at the Ask and sell at the Bid. Pending Buy Stop orders become market orders when hit by the Ask.
-
Your buy order's TP/SL (or Sell Stop's/Sell Limit's entry) are triggered when the Bid / OrderClosePrice reaches it. Using Ask±n, makes your SL shorter and your TP longer, by the spread. Don't you want the specified amount used in either direction?
-
Your sell order's TP/SL (or Buy Stop's/Buy Limit's entry) will be triggered when the Ask / OrderClosePrice reaches it. To trigger close at a specific Bid price, add the average spread.
MODE_SPREAD (Paul) - MQL4 programming forum - Page 3 #25 -
The charts show Bid prices only. Turn on the Ask line to see how big the spread is (Tools → Options (control+O) → charts → Show ask line.)
Most brokers with variable spreads widen considerably at end of day (5 PM ET) ± 30 minutes.
My GBPJPY shows average spread = 26 points, average maximum spread = 134.
My EURCHF shows average spread = 18 points, average maximum spread = 106.
(your broker will be similar).
Is it reasonable to have such a huge spreads (20 PIP spreads) in EURCHF? - General - MQL5 programming forum (2022)
