Alertfunction rounded numbers

[[Deleted]]

Hi guys,

i was wondering because in Alert functions all numbers are rounded to 4 digits even if the pair has 5 digits.

How can i receive the whole number unrounded?

Thx

Read the documentation:  Alert()

Use this and you would have found many entries answering your question.

Alert("Bid=",PriceToStr(Bid)," Spread=",DeltaToPips(Ask-Bid)," pips");

int      Digits.pips;                  // DoubleToStr(dbl/pips2dbl, Digits.pips)
int      init(){
    if(Digits % 2 == 1){   // DE30=1/JPY=3/EURUSD=5 forum.mql4.com/43064#515262
            pips2dbl = Point*10;    pips2points = 10;    Digits.pips = 1;
   } else { pips2dbl = Point;       pips2points =  1;    Digits.pips = 0;     }

This will return the 5 digits for the chart that it is attached to.

Try for eg: Alert ("Bid" , DoubletoStr(Bid,5);
