Why I always get invalid price EA error 129 when try to execute an instant trade?
Just testing, with Position Size Calculator ver. 2.42+ PSC scrpit works perfectly.
Most likely, the price moves away while you are confirming it. Try removing the "Ask for confirmation" tick mark.

Hello

While testing I have noticed if I am adding a second trade to a pair (USTEC/NAS100/US100 in this example), which already has an active trade, when I use the Position Sizer to add a pending trade the Stop Loss is not applied. In this scenario the first trade had already met its BE parameter. I also added a trade with an instant execution and the stop loss was not applied to the trade.

I have attached the screenshots.

FYI - In the journal at 10:35:51:600 - The SL here was modified manually by me by typing in the SL value

What was the output in the Experts tab when you opened that trade?

It appears that your broker doesn't allow trade (either automated or generally) on this symbol. Perhaps, you should be using it on EURUSD.i, not EURUSD?

I just found the solution. I just unchecked these two options. Now it's working fine.
Thanks for quick response.

Again sam

Again the problem is coming. Sometimes it is working and sometime it is not working
"Trade disabled" error is the platform/server issue. As I can see, you have enable autotrading properly. The only problem can be with the trading server. Perhaps, they are disabling trading during some news releases?

I think now my issue is solved. EA is not working only Forex currecy pairs. The EA is working fine with all other instruments

It is likely the Forex section pairs are for reference only and not for trading. Or your broker disables trading them with EAs/scripts.

So, what exactly are you doing? Are you manually changing the open position's take-profit? Or are you changing the TP level of the Position Sizer? Does that cause the actual stop-loss of an open trade to adjust? Do you have Breakeven field on the Trading tab set to zero?

No, the Position Sizer trades on its own, without the PSC-Trader script. The "Trade is disabled" error can appear in the following cases:
  1. Autotrading is disabled in the platform.
  2. Autotrading is disabled for this EA.
  3. Trading is disabled for your account.
  4. Trading with EAs/scripts is disabled for your account.
  5. Trading is disabled for this specific currency pair (symbol).
  6. Trading with EAs/scripts is disabled for this specific currency pair (symbol).
In the first two cases, you can just enable autotrading yourself. The latter four require understand what's going on with your broker. Some brokers reserve some symbols for charting only and offer different ones for trading. Some brokers also offer separate symbols for autotrading.

my broker is eightcap so I think it is able to take the trade right? and my auto trading is open. My pair is EU then it is also a major pair so really don't know what problem is
