MT4 Get sma price of candle open
On a chart or in MQL code?
If on the chart then simply apply a Simple Moving Average to the chart and choose the Open price instead of Close price.
If in coding then use the iMA() function with the PRICE_OPEN applied price and a MODE_SMA method.

Hello, for the mql4 code, I do not think it is working correctly because at the 4 hour open of the new day candle today for EURUSD the sma 5 open price in mql4/mt4 says 0.9726, where other charts say 0.97416 area..
double sma5 = iMA(_Symbol, _Period, 5, 0, MODE_SMA, PRICE_OPEN, 0);
double sma5 = iMA(_Symbol, _Period, 5, 0, MODE_SMA, PRICE_OPEN, 0);

Can anyone tell me how to get the sma price at candle open only, and I don't want the value to change. For example a new candle has opened and I have an sma20, I want to get the value of the sma20 at open only and not after it changes, not the normal sma20 price but only at candle open.
Regards.
