    Stop Price can't be changed

    Hi
    I have a sellshort StopLimit order that i change if unfilled. I tick below the last bar's low.
    I keep getting the stop price can't be changed above the market but the price value it quotes ( the one I want) is below the market.
    Currently I am on the simulated feed. I appreciate in real market situations this could happen but I am controlling the conditions here and it does it sometimes but not every time.
    Is this a bug or am i missing something?
    Does not do this on the reverse BuyStop Limit order code.

    Can you shed any light on this anomaly?

    thanks

    Hello Mindset,

    The error means that the sell stop price was equal to or above the current bid.

    Ensure the stop price is below the bid before the order is submitted.

    double stopPrice = Low[0];

    if (stopPrice >= GetCurrentBid())
    stopPrice = GetCurrentBid() - TickSize.

    EnterStopMarket(stopPrice);

      Thanks Chelsea - I hadn't realised that the stop price could be equal to the bid, which of course it can- doh!
