Save the data in a CSV file in the TERMINAL\experts\files folder (for testing TERMINAL\tester\files.) Have the EA/script read the file.

Start reading here: File Functions

i made this code

but not read from my file

int start()

{

int handle ;
int value ;
handle=FileOpen("booky.csv", FILE_CSV, ';');
if(handle>0)
  {
   value=FileReadNumber(handle);
   FileClose(handle);
  }

 
  return(0);
}

You need to read some more: FileOpen() you need to FILE_READ from your FILE_CSV . . so use FILE_CSV | FILE_READ
