thanks a lot, Marco, for this fast (and working) feedback!!
since you're an expert in the MT5 area, may I ask another question:
is there a code fragement/idea how to adress past values from global variables (or to "record them") while ticks (and Bars) are coming in ? let's say GlobalVariableGet("CustomVar") gets the Bar0-value. Now the Bar1-value would be interesting to adress (or to be "stored")

does anyone have the idea for a (complete)code part, which makes sure, an EA (alternatively) an indicator is executed only at certain time intervals, let's say every 30 seconds etc.?
for eventual hints thanks a lot in advance
