Thank you for your help. Can I also ask for an example of EA (part of the code) on how to get value from these lines in EA.

I made an Expert Advisor for myself https://www.mql5.com/ru/code/34046- which can perform operations on horizontal or trend lines

You need to know the name of horizontal lines fromTymen_STARC_Bands_MTF

here are their names

string   m_r2_name      = "Highest";
string   m_r1_name      = "Top";
string   m_0_name       = "Middle";
string   m_s1_name      = "Bottom";
string   m_s2_name      = "Lowest";

and enter them into the Expert Advisor and set the command

here

sinput group "----------------- Trade Line UP ------------------------"
sinput ENUM_MODE          FilterLine_13              = mode_All;         // FILTER: ВКЛ.ВЫКЛ.
sinput ENUM_TIMEFRAMES    InpPeriod_Up               = PERIOD_CURRENT;   // Period
sinput ENUM_TRADE_COMMAND InpCommandOpenedUp         = open_buy;         // Trade command:
sinput string             InpNameAverageUp           = "Line Up";        // Line Name UP(Horizontal Line or Trend Line)
sinput ENUM_TRADE_COMMAND InpCommandOpenedUpLow      = open_sell;        // Trade command:
sinput bool               InpDelLineUp               = false;            // Delete (Horizontal Line or Trend Line)
sinput double             InpObjStepTradeUp          = 0;                // Obj: Distance from price to object, in pips
sinput color              InpObjAverageclrUp         = clrBlue;          // EA only monitors this lines color
sinput group "----------------- Trade Line_2 UP ----------------------"
sinput ENUM_MODE          FilterLine_15              = mode_All;         // FILTER: ВКЛ.ВЫКЛ.
sinput ENUM_TIMEFRAMES    InpPeriod_Up_2             = PERIOD_CURRENT;   // Period
sinput ENUM_TRADE_COMMAND InpCommandOpenedUp_2       = open_buy;         // Trade command:

sinput color              InpObjAverageclrUp_2       = clrBlue;          // EA only monitors this lines color
sinput group "----------------- Trade Line DOWN ----------------------"
sinput ENUM_MODE          FilterLine_14              = mode_All;         // FILTER: ВКЛ.ВЫКЛ.
sinput ENUM_TIMEFRAMES    InpPeriod_Down             = PERIOD_CURRENT;   // Period

sinput double             InpObjStepTradeDown        = 0;                // Obj: Distance from price to object, in pips
sinput color              InpObjAverageclrDown       = clrRed;           // EA only monitors this lines color

sinput ENUM_MODE          FilterLine_16              = mode_All;         // FILTER: ВКЛ.ВЫКЛ.

the function itself in Expert Advisor from Horizontal or Trend line

Here -(marked in yellow - here the name of line is set )\\\\\\\\\\\\ for 1 minute test - manually put a horizontal or trend line, set the same name in Expert Advisor and in the line itself.

the easiest and simplest way is to get the names of Horizontal or Trend lines from the Indicator.

- right-click on a chart and find LIST OF OBJECTS(copy and paste into Expert Advis or)

Hi all !
I'm begging for help, I've already racked my brain, I can't find how to implement the following.
When opening a new bar, perform a calculation.
When opening a new bar again, perform the calculation and perform any actions.
I can't find it in MQL5
Please help!!!

If it is for an indicator, there is rates_total and prev_calculated. If it is for an EA, then the same as in mql4...

Can I have a short piece of code please, I'm a newbie and my head is already boiling. Confused.

Alexey Viktorov:

Yes, it's for the indicator

Alexey Viktorov:
Если это для индикатора, то есть rates_total и prev_calculated. Если-же для советника, то так-же как и в mql4…


if(rates_total > prev_calculated)
 Print("Новый бар");

Am I reading this right?

The opening of the candle is delayed by 9-12 seconds.
Can you please tell me if this is the first tick?

It is just extremely important for me to make calculations, and perform any actions on the first tick of a new candle.
