New Candle Open Price

[[Deleted]]

Hello everyone. Please help me figure out the best approach to calculating the open price of every new candle. Thank you in advance.

1. Wait for a new candle.

   For a new bar test, Bars is unreliable (a refresh/reconnect can change number of bars on chart,) volume is unreliable (miss ticks,) Price is unreliable (duplicate prices and The == operand. - MQL4 programming forum.) Always use time.

   I disagree with making a new bar function, because it can only be called once per tick. A variable can be tested multiple times.

2. Remember Bid or iOpen(…, 0). There is no "calculating."

Welcome to MQL5.

Try this and I guess you will get the answer.

#include<TradeAlgorithms.mqh>
CIsNewBar newbar;
void OnStart()
{
if(newbar.IsNewBar(NULL,0))
     {
        Print(iOpen(NULL,0,0));
     }
}
