ErrorMessage Sellstop

[tonynt]

Hello,

I have error messages when placing a sellstoplimit. Example here: price YM was 26754 when I wanted to place the sellstoplimit. And in the attached message it shows 26747 x 26749 which is correct from my code "entryOrderSbo1a=EnterShortStopLimit(0,true,1,shor tlinevalue, shortlinevalue-2*TickSize, "Sbo1a");" (shortlinevalue is the red dashed line with value 26749.)

Why appears an error message with "limit price cant be greater than stop price" please?

Maybe I have not fully understood the sellstop and buyorder logic for coding, sorry if so, and thank you for showing me.

Thank you!
Tony

Hello tonynt,

Thanks for your post.

In the case of the EnterShortStopLimit(), as the error message advises, you would need to set the limit price to be less than or equal to the stop price. In reviewing the help guide example for EntershortStopLimit() it appears to show the opposite, so I will submit a change to the help guide example.

For the EnterLongStopLimit(), the limit price would need the greater than or equal to the stop price.

Hello,

thank you forr your reply. I want to ask about using sellstopmarket order and buystopmar****rder in a script strategy. When my conditions are true for a sellstopmar****rder then this is place but when later the conditions for buystopmar****rder is true then there is no order placed. Same when condition for buy... is true first then this order is place but then the sell.... is not place with conditions true in the script. What is necessary to add to a script strategy so that this is working for both please.

Thank you!
Tony
