Demo_FileWriteInteger - MetaTrader 5용 스크립트

The script gets prices from the specified symbol, analyzes them and writes price movement data in the binary file in certain periods of time. The FileWriteInteger() function is used for writing all data.

Date value will be preliminary converted to the string, split to the uchar type array and then written in the file using the function.

Code:

//--- show the window of input parameters when launching the script
#property script_show_inputs
//--- parameters for receiving data from the terminal
input string             InpSymbolName="EURUSD";           // currency pair
input ENUM_TIMEFRAMES    InpSymbolPeriod=PERIOD_H1;        // timeframe
input datetime           InpDateStart=D'2013.01.01 00:00'; // data copying start date
//--- parameters for writing data to the file
input string             InpFileName="Trend.bin"; // file name
input string             InpDirectoryName="Data"; // directory name
