Thank you for the response. I noticed that the function only gives me the hourly time because I am currently on the hourly timeframe. If I switch to the minute timeframe, it also provides me with minutes. Is it possible to have access to minutes while staying on the hourly timeframe, as if I were on the minute timeframe?

thanks again

No.

How would you do it anyway?

How would you distinguish minutes inside the hour candle?

If the human clicks on the forming bar, only then use TimeCurrent.

You are right, that's the only candle where OP could get what he wants. As I understood, he would like to have that feature over the whole chart.

1. Perhaps you should read the manual. iOpen - Timeseries and Indicators Access - MQL4 Reference
      How To Ask Questions The Smart Way. (2004)
         How To Interpret Answers.
            RTFM and STFW: How To Tell You've Seriously Screwed Up.

2. Your code is wrong. Read the warning message. Compare that to the documentation.

iOpen requires bar index, not time.

First use iBarShift to get bar index for the time you want to get information, then use that index in iOpen function.

As William wrote - read the documentation, there are examples of usage and code you can copy/paste into your source.

Also - search the help file you get with the editor - you will find more examples.
