Does not compute... 

This is how someone with MT4 might do it.

// MT4 read last closed trade profit or loss and check if its closed time is less than 15 minutes

if (LastProfit()) return(0); // exit when condition is true.  It is reset proof, ie. the platform can be restarted

bool LastProfit() 
{
   double   profit; 
   datetime closetime=TimeCurrent();
   for (int pos=OrdersHistoryTotal()-1; pos>=0; pos--)
   {
      if (OrderSelect(pos,SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_HISTORY)==TRUE && OrderMagicNumber()==MAGIC && OrderSymbol()==Symbol())
      {
         if (OrderType()== OP_BUY || OrderType()== OP_SELL) { profit=OrderProfit(); closetime=OrderCloseTime(); }
      }
   }
   if(profit < 0 && (TimeCurrent()-closetime) < 15*60) return(true); // return true when time is less than 15 minutes ago ie. 15*60seconds
   else  return(false);
}
