Account Balance

New comment
 

Hi there,

 

I tried to display the time and Balance, but I am seeing nothing.

 void OnTick()

  {

//--  The algorithm  ----------------------------------------------------   3  ---

   Alert("aaaaaa",TimeToStr(TimeCurrent()),AccountBalance());

   Print("Time=",TimeCurrent(),"Account balance=",AccountBalance());

Any ideas?

   datetime timeCurrent = TimeCurrent();
   string timeString = TimeToString(timeCurrent);
   string textValue = StringFormat("AccountBalance: %.2f - TimeCurrent: %s", accountBalance, timeString);
   Comment(textValue);
//--- return value of prev_calculated for next call

Try this. Just nailed it into the Metaeditor.

1) Create a custom indicator with a name of your choice.

2) Put the code with the yellow background inside the OnCalculate(); function of your indicator. Compile and insert the indicator into a chart.

Now you can do this as Script as well with the OnStart(); function. This only run one time. The OnTick(); function only works in the expert advisor. Hope this get's you going.
