So in general the generated EA cannot open/modify any trade, tested on FXOpen & FXPro demo account.

this doesn't look like an error, perhaps a bad strategy. There is a check whehter order has correct price, if yes it logs it.

But it doesn' tpreven tsrategy from opening correct orders.

In your log you can clearly see for example:

Opening order type BUY STOP with price 1.12611. Current market prices: 1.1284 / 1.12827

So the current market price (Ask / Bid) is 1.1284 / 1.12827 and EA tries to open Buy Stop order below it. It is not possible. Buy Stop order can be opened only above current market price.

If you stil think there is some error please attch your strategy in .sqx format.
