Average Position Holding Time - page 2

Anyone with this formula for the OnTester? Could be really useful.

Testing Statistics (https://www.mql5.com/en/docs/constants/environment_state/statistics) doesn't provide yet this parameter that we can see in the Tester Report: Average Position Holding Time

Up, anyone already test it ? 

It's very useful i think

correct me if I'm wrong here

So I need to declare global variables and store the position holding time(s) everytime my trade closed in On_Tick() and used it in custom max (on_Tester) later?

Can metaquotes give us a simpler solution? Should I write to ServiceDesk to appeal for this statistic? 

are you already test it with custom OnTester sir ? 

Thanks in advance

use ulong
