Hi,
I’m just started using metatrader4. whenever I try to use sell limit ( and set my take profit & stop lost), this error came out “invalid SL/TP”. No matter how much i put my SL/TP,it wont let me place my pending order. any advise ?btw im suing demo account (Octafx)
Hi Wenn, and welcome,
A bit of a numpty suggestion here, but I have no idea what knowledge you have about trading. If you are going long, your SL should be lower than your TP. If you are going short, your SL should be higher than your TP. Please confirm this is the case.
Next step, place your entry and SL values, then place your TP after your entry has been accepted.
Mondeoman is correct.
It could also be that your S/L and T/P numbers are too close to the current price. I have run into that. When I accidentally entered numbers too close to the current price I would get that error.
Simply double check your numbers and move them further from the current price.
Hi guys. I have been into forex trading for the last 2 years and I have only used MT4. Which trading platform are you using?
I think that your stop loss and take profit numbers are very close to the current price. Consider changing them.
