Second question from a beginner - The three last values
A new bar happens every minute / every 5 minutes / every 15 minutes etc. (depending on the timeframe)
When a new bar is made, the values of the Close array shift by one (i.e. Close[1] becomes Close[2] etc.)
However, "Start" runs every tick, i.e. every time the price changes. That means many times Close[1] and Close[2] etc. will be the same for many ticks... they will only change when a new bar is made.
It looks like between the 1st and 2nd times, there was a new bar.. but the values of the 2nd, 3rd and 4th times are the same, so they are in the same bar.
Hi,
ok i tried to get the three last close values in the journal:
This is my code at start:
double Hilfsvariable= (Close[1]);
Print("Aktueller Close ",+ Hilfsvariable);
double Hilfsvariable2= (Close[2]);
Print("Vorgänger Kurs ",+ Hilfsvariable2);
double Hilfsvariable3= (Close[3]);
Print("VorVorgänger Kurs ",+ Hilfsvariable3);
The journal log gives me this result, so i marked 2 values bold, in my opion these two values have to be the same. (the second value should be 1,3196)
Can you help me again whats wrong?
Read this thread: https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/146589
And print the value to the correct number of digits using DoubleToStr(value, Digits)
Ok,
Start runs for ervery tick...
If my timeframe is 1 minute it takes many ticks each minute and build the close. This is the close of the journal.
All in all i can't prove the journal log without manually work.
I have to build the function that the jounal give me just the 1m candles to compare the data?
Am i right?
I'm not sure what you mean.
Make sure you read the book https://book.mql4.com/ and you will know everything like this.
I don't want to be rude, but if you don't know basic information (such as Start runs every tick) you shouldn't let your EA/indicator risk your money...
