What is session exactly? Where can I find session index?
nicolasxu:
This is when the main Exchange are opened, this is the time where there is most activity in trading, including Forex.From this picture, I can see FX market is 24 hours, 5 days a week for both trading and quoting activities. Does it mean there is only one session in a day?
Another conflicting info I heard is there are 3 sessions, Europe session, US session and Asia session.
In the case of these two functions involving session:
I need to pass in the session index as the 3rd parameter.
bool SymbolInfoSessionQuote(string name, // symbol name
ENUM_DAY_OF_WEEK day_of_week, // day of the week
uint session_index, // session index
datetime& from, // time of the session beginning
datetime& to // time of the session end
);
Where can I find a complete list of session_index?
Thank you!

0. But EURUSD market is always open (24/5), so which information are you hoping to find ?
Thanks a lot! I am trying to find the open and close price each day (or other period, e.g.: H1, H2) in the past month. Still haven't figure out which function to use. Any suggestions?
