Hi Steve,
I know you don't care about INVALID_STOPS error, but I will risk your wrath writing about it. It is regarding TIB EA...
When UseRed=true, stop loss is set to SlowNbTrendMaVal which changes once a day.
Today NZD/JPY shot up and dived triggering the OrderSend which kept failing due to the INVALID_STOPS error. In the attached screenshot, I can see that OP_SELL order was trying to set the stop to "Slow MA 66.639" when the Bid was 67.091.
My guess is that:
1. When buying, Slow MA should be below (Ask - STOPLEVEL)
2. When selling, Slow MA should be above (Bid + STOPLEVEL)
The question is what to do when the above is NOT the case: do you move the stop, set it to zero or don't send the order at all? Unfortunately, I don't know
The code below is just an example that sets the SL to zero.
In HasBuyFilled
Code: Select all
//if (UseRed) stop = SlowNbTrendMaVal;
if (UseRed)
{
stop = SlowNbTrendMaVal;
if (SlowNbTrendMaVal > NormalizeDouble(price - (MarketInfo(Symbol(), MODE_STOPLEVEL) * Point), Digits)) stop = 0;
}
Code: Select all
//if (UseRed) stop = SlowNbTrendMaVal;
if (UseRed)
{
stop = SlowNbTrendMaVal;
if (SlowNbTrendMaVal < NormalizeDouble(price + (MarketInfo(Symbol(), MODE_STOPLEVEL) * Point), Digits)) stop = 0;
}
Cheers,
Zeljko
