  • What does the error message “Invalid S/L or T/P” mean when I try to set up Stop Loss/Take Profit levels?

    There can be two reasons for this message:

    1. You are trying to put Stop Loss or Take Profit levels inside Limit & Stop levels, which is a different function. (See question ‘What is Limit & Stop levels?’ for more information.)
    2. You are trying to put the Stop Loss or Take Profit level on the wrong side.
    • If you add Stop Loss level for a Sell order, then you need to put Stop Loss above the current price.
    • If you add Stop Loss level for a Buy order, then you need to put Stop Loss below the current price.
    • If you add Take Profit level for a Sell order, then you need to put Take Profit below the current price.
    • And if you add Take Profit level for a Buy order, then you need to put Take Profit above the current price.
