Hello Oluwatosin,

Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the article. Your request has been noted.

 
Thank you for being so kind about explaining MQL.  Many authors purposely write to confuse as to get you into a subscription plan.  Ever since QUE publishing was brought I have not been able to find a company that publish non bias books where anyone with a high school diploma can understand. Someone brought QUE and shut it down.  I was planning on leaning a programming language and publishing a book that's well explained and very understandable.  Thank You again, your time and effort are appreciated.

You’re welcome. Thank you for your kind words.
 
is it possible to code a price action strategy? i come from a manual trading background so i focused on candle sticks reading.
 

in the last bit " This code essentially monitors and prints a message whenever the close price changes on each tick. It showcases how the “OnTick” function can be used to respond to market dynamics in real-time."

why do you put a if statement to compare the currentclose and last close? 

why don't just Print currentclose price ? Wouldn't that be straight forward to get the job done?
