I'm a little confused. Can someone tell me or show me some code snippets to do the following: I would like to make an expert that would merely follow the trend based upon ASCTrend.

I need to get the last two bars from multiple time frames (5min, 30min, 1hr and 4hr).

I need five of the six numbers (excepting volume) relating to...
I am trying to write an Expert and noticed that there are several interfaces that are used within an Expert - such as: MarketInfo(), Print(), iMACD(), iMA(), etc. I will also be writing some custom indicators.

I'm looking to get Yesterday's open price. In the following: yesterday_close = CLOSE[cnt+1]; yesterday_open = OPEN[cnt+1]; today_open = OPEN[cnt]; OPEN[cnt+1] doesn't give me it. I'm confused. Here's the basic PP code, that's templated across most PP indicators. var: cnt(0)...

I'm currently using Build 162. When I re-launch MT it starts a live update for Build 164. At the completion of the update, I do not receive a dialog box to "update and restart." Instead, the liveupdate dialog simply disappears. The result is that I stay at Build 162 and do not update...
