Number of trade by Day

New comment
 

Hello everyone,

Please i need a help to know how can i calculate number of trad was open per day,as i search for that by stander function and i don't found it


Please i need your help

Thanks

 

A trade can remain open for several days or a few seconds so calculating the number open per day can be a little awkward.

 

semotallica, are you looking to compute the number of trades by day (X trades on Monday, Y trade on Tuesday, etc) or the number of trades per day?

Trades per day is easy, you already know the total trade count by OrdersHistoryTotal() so you just need to determine the total number of days involved in trading and then divide OrdersHistoryTotal() by days of trading.

If you really want to capture/compute the number of trades by day then you'll need to decide whether you count trades as opening or closing on the given day as being a trade for that day.

Thanks for clarification, But i need a code to auto that,

For example, at Tuesday there's 5 close trade and Wednesday 6 close trad etc
