Hi William! I hope you're doing good, I'm not here to pay for an EA or a trading function, I'm here to learn and attempting to get better at coding by solving more complex problems, I'm still enrolling at programming courses. Has nothing to do with an EA, anyway, thanks for your clarifications! Have a good day. The attempted code is attached above in a source file.
No it not. You said that it's "script which is writing the data." Show us your code that reads the file and state the nature of your problem. MT4: Learn to code it.
ResetLastError(); int filehandle=FileOpen("history_1.csv",FILE_READ|FILE_CSV,';'); if(filehandle!=INVALID_HANDLE) { Print("FileOpen OK"); } else Print("Operation FileOpen failed, error ",GetLastError()); long GetValue = FileGetInteger (filehandle,1); Print ("Result: "+GetValue);Sorry, haven't understood what you meant.

William, I would really appreciate your help, as I am getting near to the solution, I'm getting the value from the .csv file, but I'm only able to get the first value on the first row here is the code. Does it need a ENUM value to specify which value you want to define? Thanks in advance.
void OnStart() { //--- ResetLastError(); int filehandle=FileOpen("history_1.csv",FILE_READ|FILE_CSV,';'); if(filehandle!=INVALID_HANDLE) { Print("FileOpen OK"); } else Print("Operation FileOpen failed, error ",GetLastError()); long GetValue = FileGetInteger (filehandle,1); Print ("Result: "+GetValue); double n_13 = FileReadNumber(filehandle); Alert (n_13); }
-
long GetValue = FileGetInteger (filehandle,1);
Don't hard code constants. The documentation says the second parameter is a ENUM_FILE_PROPERTY_INTEGER What does 1 mean? -
double File_txt=FileOpen("history_1.csv",FILE_WRITE,';');
Your script doesn't create a CSV file and FileOpen doesn't return a double.

Thank you William, I resolved the problem. Here is the source code below; the variable 'a_n' is going to represent the history of the account balance on each of the last 13 trades. Yet, it is not representing the account balance accurately, I can fix this problem since all it needs is basic calculus. The Orders Profits are represented with the variable ' vars[n]'. Thank you for your help!

Hi, I need to import a .csv column into an ea. I am attaching the source code of the script that write the .csv file below, I want to get control over every value in .csv file. The data in the .csv file will change in real-time. I'm also attaching the script which is writing the data on the .csv file. Thanks in advance for all the help you'de be giving!
