Odd. I figured the numbers put in here to send the order are correct. Any ideas anyone?

Note: this is from the strategy tester.

2 pip takeprofit for a yen pair could be below the minimum allowed size, at least the error message in this case would be the same as far as i remember. And the suggestion with NormalizeDouble(x, Digits) for all prices is also correct. Although the numbers may look "round" they actually aren't in all cases and the Order*() functions won't accept them.

It's a 5 digit pair. So it's actually 20. Anyway, it was a problem w/ MT4. Once I uninstalled and re-installed, it worked as expected.
