One function? No!

Several functions that are related and can be used to access that information? Yes!

• MQL4 Trade Functions
• MQL5 Trade functions

You may select orders from history in a loop, check its open time or close time, sum up its profit/loss.

[Angelito Cartagena]

I think it can be done using custom date function, but you have to do it manually on the history tab.
