I guess I should be asking if I can actually get OrdersHistoryTotal() and limit the return to show the closed trades for today only ? I mean I know I can Print(OrdersHistoryTotal()); and this will give me the total orders of whatever I select
Hi, I'm experimenting with multi time frame indicators. I want to trade when M5 and M1 agree IE these are both MACD M1 and M5: if (faster_1 > slower_1 && faster_2 > slower_2) For some reason the M1 seems to just
