Oh my god. So stupid.


Ok. Now i how can i compare the current time to the OrderCloseTime() in case of different Timeframes.

Since the close there should be minimum 5 Bars of the current timeframe.

Use iBarShift()  with the time to get the bar number of the close.
 

Hi guys,

if a trade was closed i want my EA wait for opening a next trade till 5 bars were finished.

How can i do this?

How do i get the time of the close of the last trade and how can i compare it with the bars?


Thanks guys

This doesn't get the time of the "last trade closed" it gets the time of the trade with the highest position.
datetime Last;
int TotalNumberOfOrders = OrdersHistoryTotal(); //
for(int i = 0; i <=TotalNumberOfOrders - 1 ; i++) //
{
if(OrderSelect(i,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_HISTORY)==false) continue; // falls Zeile leer
{
if(OrderType()==OP_BUY && OrderType()==OP_SELL ) {Last=OrderCloseTime(); Alert(OrderCloseTime());}
i <= TotalNumberOfOrders - 1 is the same as i < TotalNumberOfOrders Simplified - less operations

You would never write if( ( (2+2) == 4 ) == true ) would you? So don't write if(bool == true). if(bool) or if(!bool) is sufficient.
The && was previously mentioned.
Find the trade with the newest close time.
datetime Last=0; // None found yet.
for(int i = OrdersHistoryTotal(); i >= 0 ; i--) if(
   OrderSelect(i,SELECT_BY_POS,MODE_HISTORY)
&& (OrderType()==OP_BUY || OrderType()==OP_SELL )
&& Last <= OrderCloseTime()
   ) {Last=OrderCloseTime(); Alert(OrderCloseTime());} 
if(Last == 0) Alert("No orders in history");
No magic number make this incompatible with every other EA including itself on other charts and manual trading. Symbol Doesn't equal Ordersymbol when another currency is added to another seperate chart . - MQL4 forum
