SERIES_SYNCHRONIZED

Can you please explain what it means?

Does it mean that the last known quote in the terminal matches the last server quote?
Just that or something else? Or something else?

Afternoon.

The SymbolsTotal(true)function does not work in the MT5 Strategy Tester, it returns 1 and should return the total number of symbols in Market Watch. I haven't seen this problem in the MT4 Strategy Tester.

Or is there some other way to request the number of symbols from Market Watch in MQL5 ?

SymbolsTotal(true) does not work in MT5 Strategy Tester

In the strategy tester of MT5 there is only one symbol, if you have not accessed other symbols.

For example, ask for time of another symbol and after that see how many symbols in market overview.

Can you tell me what *** MT5 is broadcasting on the Eurodollar futures ED-12.21 on FOREX?

On the Moscow Exchange website the prices are the same as on FOREX 1.13155. And brokers Otkritie and BSC have quotes 1.06220, 1.06230 and so on on on the ED-12.21 demo account.

Hello Dear Mountaineers)

Can anyone suggest how to create a unique key or index: having

- Opening time

- Object period

- object's timeframe

If these parameters can be taken into account to create a unique index, but here's how?

Ideally, the key should be in int format, but who knows what?

[Mikhail Toptunov]

Can anyone else give you a hint?

I need to sort the signal so that the values do not repeat during recording, what is the best way to do this:

- Via a normal loop

//+---Отсеивает повторения по cand_buff------------------------------+
bool UnloadSQLMAllTim::Filter(int ID)
  {
   for(int i=0; i<CountLoad; i++)
      if(this.cand_buff[i].ID==ID)
         return(false);
   return(true);
  }

Are there any other options? So that you can insert it inArrayBsearchand search for it.

Corrected the meaning. I was unclear.

I meant to say that the int format is ideal, but if not, any format will do.
