MT4 New Bar in indicator

New comment
 

Hi,

 

Could someone please show me how I detect and only execute something at the beginning of a new bar please.

I know how to do it in an EA but this is the first indicator I've written.

 Thanks in advance. 

 

Please do some search before asking, there is a lot of resource on this site on this subject, for example :

MQL5 programming language is capable of solving problems on a brand new level. Even those tasks, that already have such solutions, thanks to object oriented programming can rise to a higher level. In this article we take a specially simple example of checking new bar on a chart, that was transformed into rather powerful and versatile tool. What tool? Find out in this article.
 
I'm using MT4 not MT5 so this isn't relevant I'm afraid. Any other ideas?
