Error Codes

When a trade fails to copy, TraderPilot will display an error code explaining why. This reference guide walks through every possible error code and how to resolve it.

Trade Is Disabled​

Broker has disabled trading on the account your broker may have restricted trading activity on the account entirely. Open your trading platform and try placing a trade manually. If that also fails, contact your broker directly for assistance.

Broker Errors​

These errors are returned by the broker when they are unable to execute the trade.

MARKET_CLOSED​

The broker is not accepting trades because the market is currently closed. This typically occurs:

  • On weekends, if your broker closes the relevant market.
  • During swap hours, when some brokers halt trading for up to an hour.

Avoid placing trades during these periods where possible.

Invalid Volume​

The requested lot size is either below the broker's minimum or above its maximum allowed volume.

To resolve this:

  • If the lot size is too small (usually below 0.01), increase your risk setting in the copier configuration.
  • If the lot size is too large, reduce your risk setting.

INVALID_PRICE​

This error commonly occurs when copying pending (limit) orders across different brokers. Each broker has its own live market price, so a pending order placed at a specific price on the master may be invalid on the slave broker where the market has already moved past that price.

Invalid S/L or T/P​

Similar to INVALID_PRICE, this error means the broker cannot accept the Stop Loss or Take Profit price you are requesting because the market has already moved past that level.

Off Quotes​

This error can occur for two reasons:

  • Market is closed or restricted — similar to the MARKET_CLOSED error, your broker is temporarily not accepting trades.
  • Low liquidity — if you are trading large lot sizes and the broker cannot fill the order at the current market depth, they may return this error.

Requote​

A requote means the broker cannot fill the order at the requested price. This typically happens during periods of high market volatility — such as major news events — when prices are moving faster than the broker can execute. The broker rejects the order to prevent excessive slippage.

NO_MONEY / Not Enough Money​

Your account does not have sufficient free margin to execute the requested lot size.

To resolve this:

  • Deposit additional funds into your account, or
  • Reduce your lot size or risk settings in the copier configuration.

Ticket Not Found / Order Not Found​

TraderPilot attempted to modify or close a trade that no longer exists on the slave account.

This can happen in the following scenarios:

  • A Stop Loss on the slave account was triggered before the master trade closed. When the master subsequently closed, the ticket could not be found on the slave.
  • A trade failed to copy initially, but the master trade was later modified or closed — triggering a follow-up action on a trade that never existed on the slave.

No action is typically required. This is an informational error indicating the slave trade was already closed before TraderPilot could act on it.
