Could anyone please help me how can i get the number of the last consecutive losing trades and the number of the last consecutive winning trades from the orders history?

 

Thank you for your help!

it would be helpful if you posted the code so that if any other coders need help to do this they can see how it is done.

The solution

 

Okay Chris, here is the solution:

 

First we need to get the last closed order and its profit from the orders history.

 

int LastCloseTime = 0;
double LastProfit = 0;
for (int cnt = 0; cnt < OrdersHistoryTotal(); cnt++) {
  OrderSelect(cnt, SELECT_BY_POS, MODE_HISTORY);
  if (OrderSymbol()== Symbol() && OrderMagicNumber()== Magic) {
     if (OrderCloseTime() > LastCloseTime) {
        LastCloseTime = OrderCloseTime();
        LastProfit = OrderProfit();  
     }   
  }
}

 

Then we need two integers for counting the last consecutive winning and losing trades, and a global variable to save the last order's close time.

 

int CntWinners=0;
int CntLosers=0;
if (!GlobalVariableCheck("LastCloseTime")) GlobalVariableSet("LastCloseTime",0);

 

In the last step we need this code for counting:

 

if (LastProfit>=0 && LastCloseTime>GlobalVariableGet("LastCloseTime")) {
  GlobalVariableSet("LastCloseTime",LastCloseTime);
  CntWinners+=1;  // adding one to the winners
  CntLosers=0;      // nulling the losers
}
if (LastProfit<0 && LastCloseTime>GlobalVariableGet("LastCloseTime")) {
  GlobalVariableSet("LastCloseTime",LastCloseTime);
  CntWinners=0;   // nulling the winners
  CntLosers+=1;   // adding one to the losers
}      

 

If we want to print the actual number of the last consecutive winner and loser trades on to the chart we can do it this way:

 

Comment("Last Consecutive Winners: ", CntWinners, "\n", "Last Consecutive Losers: ", CntLosers);

 

I hope you find it useful!
