modify Problems in some symbols (Stoploss and TakeProfits Format i think)
13 Aug 2019, 15:31

Hi! comunity... first of all thanks for all respond...

well I resucite and old code that says
 

double? newStopLoss= Symbol.Ask - 10*Symbol.PipSize;
double? newTakeProfits= Symbol.Ask + 10 * Symbol.PipSize;

ModifyPosition (position, Math.Round(Convert.ToDouble(newStopLoss), symbol.Digits), Math.Round(Convert.ToDouble(newTakeProfits), symbol.Digits));

so, few years ago i format newstoploss and newtakeprofits with a rounded symbol.digits, but that force to convert to double for math to work. with this code i receive and error of "technical error" in live account

 

 

i change code to normal modify

ModifyPosition (position, newStopLoss, newTakeProfits);

and now i receive error (only in some symbols): "Nothing to amend"

13/08/2019 12:20:29.835 | → Request to amend position PID96311600 (SL: 75.905) is REJECTED with error "Nothing to amend."

-------------------

regards

Hi ctid990337,

Thanks for posting in our forum. The message means that the values are identical with the previous ones. It would be better to check if the new stop loss and take profit are different from the existing ones before you try to modify them.

Best Regards,

Hi ctid990337,

The message is clear. You cannot place a stop loss higher than the bid price.

Best Regards,

Panagiotis
