New comment
 

Hi everyone,

I try to obtain last second trade in history is profitable or not. I can get last trade in history is profitable or not as follows;


if (OrderSelect(OrdersHistoryTotal()-1, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_HISTORY )
  {
   if (OrderProfit()>0)
    { 
      success=1;
    }
   else
    {
      success=0;
    }

I need to get last second trade in history is profitable or not. How can I do that?

Best.

 

if(OrderOpenTime()>...

or 

if(OrderCloseTime()>...

Depending on your needs.

Same idea as with profit but with time.

Hi Marco,

I hope you are well. Can you give me more detail, please? How can I use OrderOpenTime?

  1. No you can not. Do not assume history has only closed orders.
    Do not assume history is ordered by date, it's not.

  2. Using OrdersTotal OrdersHistoryTotal directly and/or no Magic number filtering on your OrderSelect loop means your code is incompatible with every EA (including itself on other charts and manual trading.)

Hi William,

if History is empty, I do another things. Thank you. But, I could not select last second trade if history has closed orders.

 

Hi again Marco,

I can obtain last second order'S closetime with following code. What should be next step to get prafitable or not?

datetime orderclosetime[];
int orderstotal=OrdersHistoryTotal();
ArrayResize(orderclosetime,orderstotal,0);

for(int i=0;i<orderstotal;i++)
  {
   if(OrderSelect(i, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_HISTORY))
     {
      orderclosetime[i]=OrderCloseTime();
     }
  }

int index;
index=ArrayMaximum(orderclosetime, WHOLE_ARRAY,0);
orderclosetime[index]=0;
index=ArrayMaximum(orderclosetime, WHOLE_ARRAY,0);
