Error 131 is invalid lot size. Does your broker accept lots of 0.01? If not change the script to use a lot size of 0.1, or even 1.0.
Tried that already
same error
drives me crazy

If that doesn't work, try using the NormalizeDouble function. You may be hitting a weird rounding issue.

double NormalizeDouble( double value, int digits)

Rounds the floating point value to the given precision. Returns normalized value of the double type.

The calculated StopLoss and TakeProfit values, as well as open price of pending orders must be normalized with a precision the value of which is stored in the pre-defined variable of Digits.

Parameters:
value - Floating point value.
digits - Precision format, number of digits after decimal point (0-8).

Sample:
double var1=0.123456789;
Print(DoubleToStr(NormalizeDouble(var1,5),8));
// output: 0.12346000

Yes, Context busy is the broker end, not the script.

Actually, Context Busy is client side. MetaTrader is single threaded when it comes to placing or modifying orders. It may also include other server comms, but I'm not sure. If you are running other EAs and they are trading at the same time, then you may get this error.

Obviously, if your broker is slow, then your client will be locked up longer and the risk of hitting this situation is increased.

There's an article here that describes it.
