OrdersTotal in MQL5
Hi Friends,
I am trying to port my EA from MQL4 to MQL5. I want to create an array having open prices of open trades at that moment. Codes and output of both MQL4 and 5 are given below.
In MQL5 if I add an order manually it’s been added to the previously opened orders of the same symbol and number of open trades remains 1. Have look on screenshots. But I need the count as got in the MQL4. Please suggest me a method to do so.
Note: From this array I am finding out the highest and lowest values.

You have to understand how orders, positions and deals are working in MQL5.
For the code you provide, you have to use HistoryDealsTotal() and then select the appropriate deals (DEAL_TYPE & DEAL_ENTRY).

I got it partially. But how to differentiate OPEN DEALS from CLOSED DEALS. In MQL4 we simply access order pool using MODE_TRADE or we can check order close time whether it is zero or not.
But how here? How to use DEAL_ENTRY? Can you please give me an example.

Useful article. But little bit confusing.
Can you please tell me Am I Right? If I'm wrong please explain it.
1. Placing a trade (BUY/SELL) is an individual ORDER and TP is also an individual order having different order reference numbers. Am I right?
2. If above statement is right there is no ORDER CLOSING time (Like the one in MQL4)
3. While having 'n' no of lots in Buying means, If I place selling order with lot size 1, total lot size will be 'n-1' and I'm having no Sell positions only 'n-1' Buy positions. Am I right?
4. To create the array as I asked earlier, What I have to do.

1. Yes and no, it depends how you place your TP.
2. Yes
3. Yes
4. Continue to learn.
1. Yes and no, it depends how you place your TP.
"Yes", if I am placing order with TP mentioned in it.
"NO", if I am placing order without TP.
Am I right?
4. Continue to learn.
Just give me a clue, how to separate closed trades from Open trades.
"Yes", if I am placing order with TP mentioned in it.
"NO", if I am placing order without TP.

I already give you some clues. Show your attempt and you will receive help.

So far displayed correct parameters. Which one will decide whether the order is OPEN or not.

You have to check DEAL_ENTRY which can be DEAL_ENTRY_IN, DEAL_ENTRY_OUT which corresponds almost to Open and Close.
Don't mix deals and orders.

// You miss the first deal (i=0), intentionally ?
First Deal is "Balance". That's why I neglected it. Is it wrong?
You have to check DEAL_ENTRY which can be DEAL_ENTRY_IN, DEAL_ENTRY_OUT which corresponds almost to Open and Close.
Yes. I checked the DEAL_ENTRY and found IN and OUT and the TYPE too.
Where I am struggling is using these parameters how could I find which entry is closed which is not?
and What is the OPEN_PRICE of latest entry (which is going to act as a pointer)?
and If the latest pointer-entry is CLOSED (profit booked) next very latest-open-entry should be the pointer-entry.
