so can I say tick volume is actually my Total Volume ??
Spread = difference from bid and ask price ?? Means it is not 0 Integer then ??? I had to use MarketInfo to get bid and ask price minus ?

for spread you can use this:

Code: Select all

 spread=MarketInfo(Symbol(),MODE_SPREAD);

What about the real volume ???? I checked and it says iVolume returns tick volume value from the specific bars ...

Also about the MODE_SPREAD , I make TotalSpread as an Integer type , then below the 2nd for loop its TotalSpread += MarketInfo ( List[y] , MODE_SPREAD ) ;

And below I use FileWriteInteger ( Data , TotalSpread , INT_VALUE ) .

There's an error in the TotalSpread += ( possible loss of data due to type of conversion ) .

I read about MODE_SPREAD it seems to give back the value of spread in terms of points , which would be a Double type . When I tried making it into a double type then everything goes wrong , my chart will look like this .

it is integer as points are always integer.. pips could be double

Okay I get it now , points are 1/10 of a pip . I shall test the EA tomorrow and see whether the offline charts will move like a online chart a not . Is it possible to convert this into an indicator ?? ( So I just need 1 open chart and can create my offline charts ) . I don't think so I need to use the OnCalculate() as I already use the OnTimer() , I tried putting the ex4 into Indicators folder but it keeps on remove itself .
