MetaTrader 5 Expert Advisor | EA High and Low last 24 hours

An example of receiving the High and Low prices of bars over the past 24 hours.

Hot Keys:

  • The "H" key (case insensitive) — find the High price
  • The "L" key (case insensitive) — find the Low price

To get the High and Low prices, the third form of call CopyHigh and CopyLow is used:

Requesting based on the first and last date of the required time interval:

int  CopyHigh(
   string           symbol_name,      // Symbol name
   ENUM_TIMEFRAMES  timeframe,        // Period
   datetime         start_time,       // Start date
   datetime         stop_time,        // End date
   double           high_array[]      // Array to copy High prices
   );

Requesting based on the first and last date of the required time interval:

int  CopyLow(
   string           symbol_name,     // Symbol name
   ENUM_TIMEFRAMES  timeframe,       // Period
   datetime         start_time,      // Start date
   datetime         stop_time,       // End date
   double           low_array[]      // Array to copy Low prices
   );

The time interval is represented as follows:

         datetime stop_time   = TimeCurrent();              // stop date and time
         datetime start_time  = stop_time-24*60*60;         // start date and time  

start_time <-> stop_time
