Minute[0]

Hi,

• When I assign Minute[0] to a variable in the journal I see it always returns the value of 0 in Mt4 backtesting no matter what the tick minute is?
• Will this return the actual minute when the EA runs live?  (I assume this is the broker time and hence it is 0 as it is not running ‘live’ actually)
• If my assumptions are correct what can I rather do that will work both in backtesting and live?

Thank you

Kind Regards

Steve

Hi,

In a demo run this morning it also returned 0?

I only what to go into orders between minute 0 and minute 40 for instance. I need to valuate what is the current minute.

Kind Regards

Hello,

it works for me normally. When attached to M5 chart it returns 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, …. If you attach your project I can check it. Please use the ZIP file format

Thanks for your response Tomas.

I attached it to the H1 chart. Will this make a difference?

Can you please make me a little demo.

Kind Regards

Steve

Tomas in short I only want to go into orders between minute 0 and minute 40 within the hour. I need to valuate what is the current minute within the hour.

Thanks

I’ve attached my demo here. Thank you.
