Day of Week in MQL5

[Wolfgang]

For a pivot indicator I need an expression to find Monday.

In MQL4 code

if (DayOfWeek() == 1) ...                

 

How do you code an expression to find the first day of the week in MQL5? 

Can you give an example?

See MqlDateTime.

See MqlDateTime.

I looked at this link allready, but as a non -professional, only stupid trader, I need an example, which is closer to my needs.

An expression just for one day in the week.

MQL5=>MQL4 conversion functions are here https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/121011/page18

In mt4datetime.mqh:

int DayOfWeek()
{
   MqlDateTime tm;
   TimeCurrent(tm);
   return(tm.day_of_week);
}

When I understand corrctly this means: I can use the old expression, with 

#include <mt4datetime.mqh>

 Compiler  shows no errors.

Hope it works

 

Thanks.
