Hi,

I see the symbol_info_tick, but what about a symbol_info per timeframe to get the last price.

Is there some example script that gets the latest prices into the dataframe and then opens a Buy or Sell based on a param? for python with MT5

Thank you

Hm ... I had no difficulty installing.

The message about updating the pip showing constantly, but this has nothing to do lib installation.

Pls, show error logs. Without seeing the error is difficult to say something.

Pls, show the output of python -V, in virtualenv and without virtualenv

And pls, try installing using the command python3 -m pip install MetaTrader5, and show pls output of the command.

It's the same. Nothing changes. The only way to remedy is to upgrade pip inside venv using  easy_install -U pip

Don't understanding ... Need to watch the local installation of python, variable PATH etc., it is not right ...

Is is possible to get the symbol of the chart that a python script is dropped on, like Symbol() in an MQL program?

Maybe you need to use the symbol_select or symbol_info function:

Are these the effects of yesterday's market storm? ;)
