Timeseries and Indicators Access - MQL4 Reference and Predefined Variables - MQL4 Reference Timeseries and Indicators Access - Reference on algorithmic/automated trading language for MetaTrader 5

double  open = iOpen(Symbol(),1,1);
double close = iClose(Symbol(),1,1);
double  high = iHigh(Symbol(),1,1);
double   low = iLow(Symbol(),1,1);

Osama Shaban:	The OP hasn't yet stated MT4 or MT5 and posted in the MT5 forum. Those functions do not exist in MT5.

MQL5

With CopyXXX() functions. CopyRates() will give you OHLC.

   MqlRates rates[1];
   if(CopyRates(Symbol(),PERIOD_M1,0,1,rates)!=1) { /*error processing */ };

   /* USAGE: rates[0].open ; rates[0].high ; rates[0].low ; rates[0].close */

Is there a way of getting the OHLC data of the last 10 candles as an array that can be written to a .txt file?

You have quoted the answer. Use CopyRates to get the data, and write it to a file — Documentation on MQL5: File Functions
