MT4:

1. Do not assume history has only closed orders.
             OrderType() == 6, 7 in the history pool? - MQL4 programming forum #4 and #5 (2017)

2. Do not assume history is ordered by date, it's not.

3. Total Profit is OrderProfit() + OrderSwap() + OrderCommission(). Some brokers don't use the Commission/Swap fields. Instead, they add balance entries. (Maybe related to Government required accounting/tax laws.)

Added check for OrderType() 6 and 7 , if we filter it with symbol and magic number then it is not required but for normal scenario we need it. Thanks for pointing out
