Hi, I have an input parameter in my EA 'startMinimized' - if the user sets it to true the dialog should be started minimized. So I do it this way in my code: ExtDialog = new CPanelDialog; if (startMinimized) { ExtDialog.Minimized( true ); } if (!ExtDialog.Create( 0 , " " + _Symbol

Count opened orders of a day (without all those partial closes)

Play sound only once per bar

Hi, i use a bar close timer which prints for example 1:45 (means 1 Min (m) 45 Sec (s) left until bar close). What I'm trying to do is play once a sound if m<1 && s<40 for example. Two problems 1) MetaTrader only changes the bar close timer if there is a price printed -> Ok, not good but I can live
