MBT MetaTrader 4 refuses BuyStops. BuyLimit works fine

I can't open buystops because MBT states the SL is incorrect (I also tried using EA and it returns error 130).

Am I missing something glaringly obvious?

Can you post an example of the trade you are trying to make?

Trade I just tried for this reason, it makes no sense but it should be accepted by the server since it's a valid trade. Earlier I made a sensible attempt at trading the same pair and out of desperation I just used a BuyLimit and it worked fine.

CAD/JPY
0.1 lot
Buy at price 79.000
Stop Loss at price 78.990

minimum stop is ubertiny, 1 pip is certainly large enough, I can open BuyLimits at less then 1 pip stop.

Minimumlot and lotstep is 0.1, and I don't think that's the problem since the MBT MT4 GUI says invalid Stop/TP and the error returned is 130 (invalid lots is another, 4051 if I remember correctly).

Any idea?

Not sure if those are the exact prices you tried to use but you can only enter a Buy Stop at a price that is higher than the current market price, since the stop will trigger when that price is reached. Currently the price 79.99 so the only stop order you could enter at 79.00 would be a Sell Stop, i.e. sell if the price drops from 79.99 to 79.00

Yea I thought it was something ridiculously simple and stupid like that. It's actually working now >_<.

I could've sworn I tried to set the buy price higher the first time (going with the trend after price hit a retracement), but I guess I made a typo.

Thanks for the replies.
