Time function questions

Hi brothers

How can I get or which function get the time of high price ?

How can I get the time of the current bar (like if period = 60, how many minutes elapsed right now ) ?

Thank you and God bless you

You can't get the exact time of High price since this info is not saved by the Terminal. You can however monitor the data stream in real-time, calculate and save this info yourself. If you don't need it to be completely accurate, then u can have a +/- 1 minute accuracy if u analyze the M1 time-series. If u want the time for highest for a large time-frame like H1 for example, then a +/- 1 minute accuracy might be sufficient for your needs.

Just use TimeCurrent() and calculate how much time passed since start of current bar... Something like this (did not check it so not sure):

int secs = TimeCurrent() % (Period()*60);    // calculate number of seconds passed since start of current bar (time-frame on chart)

///In my question I mean the function cause I want use it in indicator

///About second section

int secs = TimeCurrent() % (Period()*60);

this is the needed

Off the top of my head u can use iHighest(symbol, PERIOD_M1, MODE_HIGH, count, start), but u need to calculate count and start to fit the specific bar in the specific larger time-frame u want to find the highest inner M1 bar for. This function will return the shift in M1 bars, to get the time of that bar use iTime(). Please see -> iHighest(), iTime() (and see the other time-series access functions, u might need them).
