Copy OrderProfit() to an array in sequence

New comment
 

Hello,

I'm trying to copy OrderProfit() to an array, but only the last OrderProfit() value is populating the indexes. I'd like to get, for example the last five values of the OrderProfit(). Here is my code:

double array[5];
   for(int i = 0; i <= OrdersHistoryTotal()-1; i++)
     {
      if(OrderSelect(i, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_HISTORY)==true)
         if(Symbol() == _Symbol)
            if(OrderMagicNumber() == MagicNumber)
               if(OrderType() == OP_SELL)
		ProfitData = DoubleToString(OrderProfit(), 2);
                ArrayFill(array, 0, 4 , ProfitData);
    }
 
  1. Only the last value is populated because that is what ArrayFill does. Why does that supprise you?

    1. Do not assume history has only closed orders.

    2. Do not assume history is ordered by date, it's not.

    3. Total Profit is OrderProfit() + OrderSwap() + OrderCommission(). Some brokers don't use the Commission/Swap fields. Instead, they add balance entries. (Maybe related to Government required accounting/tax laws.)
