Bid/Ask Volume

New comment

Hello,

I'm using MT4 and need to access this bid/ask volume information.

Could some tell me how to access it please?

Thanks,

  1. Bid/Ask are prices. Volume is a count. There is no Bid Volume.
  2. Perhaps you should read the manual.
    Returns various data about securities listed in the "Market Watch" window.
              MarketInfo - Market Info - MQL4 Reference

    The latest known buyer's price (offer price, bid price) of the current symbol
              Predefined Variables - MQL4 Reference

Use market depth (Alt+B) - but the volume will be displayed only in MT5

Thanks, I was aware of what was achievable in the manual however, I'd hoped that I missed something. Clearly not, I find it a limitation of the platform.

Thanks, unfortunately not many brokers have moved across to MT5 yet.
