GBPUSD giving some 130.

All of these strategies are testing wildly different from sqx because of these errors btw especially the first two get stuck in a trade and cant exit.

ok, I found the problem - it was that all these strategies try to place Stop orders according to some indicators, for example:

Open Long order at ParabolicSAR(Main chart,0.11, 0.18)[1] Stop;

and this error 130 means that it was not possible to move order to a new price because it was incorrect one - for example below current Bid for Long Stop.

Set the EA parameter modifyInsteadOfReplacing = false and the price will be checked for every placed order.

Thanks for the reply Mark. It's true error 130 is solved by changing modifyInsteadOfReplacing . But still strat 01826 on tickmil demo data and also TDS data mt4 GBPUSD H4 terminal gets stuck in a trade and can't ever exit until 5 years later at the end of the test. (This doesn't happen in SQX)

Shall I open a new ticket as it's not related to the 130 errors after all?

the explanation is simple, and it is not a bug.

Since 2014 GBPUSD was in downfall. Your strategy uses only Stop loss, no Profit target, trailing stop or other exit.

It was a short order and because the market was going down it never hit your SL - hence it lasted for 5 years.
