I'm writing/testing an EA that returns error 130 on every attempt to buy or sell. I actually copied the entire buy/sell logic from another EA that works perfectly and am using zero (0) in the stop loss parameter just as the working EA does.

Can there be another reason for this? I'm stumped...

Thanks,
Lou

Error 130, from MT4 help file is
ERR_INVALID_STOPS 130 Invalid stops.

So, look where your stops and take profits are located. If they are too close (less than 10 pips generally) or maybe the sell stop is lower than the buy price or something similar, you will get that error.

Good luck.

Sorry, can't help you there. Give your broker a call or chat online. Try opening an account with another broker and see how that works.

Good luck.

Thanks, Maji - the take profit calculation was the culprit, not calculating correctly.
