Take a look to the mql4 help file:
Quote:
int IndicatorCounted( )
The function returns the amount of bars not changed after the indicator had been launched last. The most calculated bars do not need any recalculation. In most cases, same count of index values do not need for recalculation. The function is used to optimize calculating.

Note: The latest bar is not considered to be calculated and, in the most cases, it is necessary to recalculate only this bar. However, there occur some boundary cases where custom indicator is called from the expert at the first tick of the new bar. It is possible that the last tick of the previous bar had not been processed (because the last-but-one tick was being processed when this last tick came), the custom indicator was not called and it was not calculated because of this. To avoid indicator calculation errors in such situations, the IndicatorCounted() function returns the count of bars minus one.

I think it is the number of the bars which was not changed after the last indicator's call.
For example we had 300 bars. Then EA may call indicator for the signal or to open the order. For example: H1 timeframe. So we still have 300 unchanged bars. Because 301th bar is open bar and this bar will not be counted.
Because many indicators and EAs are calculated using i bars so using this function we may be sure that this i number of bars was unchanged and indicator will not re-paint and everything will be on close bar.

It is example in help file:

Code:
int start()
    {
     int limit;
     int counted_bars=IndicatorCounted();
  //---- 
     if(counted_bars>0) counted_bars--;
     limit=Bars-counted_bars;
  //---- 
     for(int i=0; i<limit; i++)
       {
        //---- 
        ExtBlueBuffer[i]=iMA(NULL,0,JawsPeriod,0,MODE_SMMA,PRICE_MEDIAN,i);
        ExtRedBuffer[i]=iMA(NULL,0,TeethPeriod,0,MODE_SMMA,PRICE_MEDIAN,i);
        ExtLimeBuffer[i]=iMA(NULL,0,LipsPeriod,0,MODE_SMMA,PRICE_MEDIAN,i);
       }
  //----
     return(0);
    }
But, sorry, I am not a coder so may be wrong.

Thank You guys, I have one more question please:
I spent many hours, and I cannot solve the problem to this code:


if (MODE_ASK==121.10)
{
ticket=OrderSend(Symbol()..............

I want the USD\JPY to trigger a buy at this point. What's wrong with this code?

Can somebody tell me a code syntax that will trigger a buy at a certain time?

Thank You. God bless You.

MODE_ASK?? who told you that the constant MODE_ASK means more than the number 10.

Well, MODE_ASK is used with the function MarketInfo to get the ask price of a currency not the one hosting the EA.

double ask =MarketInfo("EURUSD",MODE_ASK);

so, your code should be:

PHP Code:
double ask   =MarketInfo("EURUSD",MODE_ASK); 
if(ask == 121.10)
{
    //do whatever you want.
} 
And about setting time to buy you can use:

PHP Code:
if (TimeHour(TimeCurrent()) == 12 &&  TimeMinute(TimeCurrent()) >= 30)
{
   //place a buy order
} 
The code above place an order at 12:30 PM

Please not that I am not a coder so my opinion about how to code may be totally mistaken.

I just opened help in MetaEditor:

Code:
int OrderSend( string symbol, int cmd, double volume, double price, int slippage, double stoploss, double takeprofit, string comment=NULL, int magic=0, datetime expiration=0, color arrow_color=CLR_NONE)
where
- cmd - OP_BUY (buy), or OP_SELL (sell), and so on;

And also use MarketInfo.

Besices you may use some templates to create EAs:

Templates to create EAs and Indicators:
- some good templates are here;
- templates with some new codes are here.
- Programming Modules with many programming functions are here.


As to open the order at a certain time so you may use something like that:

Code:
datetime OpenOrder = StrToTime(TimeTrade)
and

Code:
if(CurTime() >= OpenTime && TimeCurrent() <= OpenOrder+60)
where,

extern string TimeTrade = "11:31";
datetime, StrToTime and TimeCurrent - see help in MetaEditor;

MQL4,
I see that Codersguru replied already so forget about my post.

Just want to say that we are having this thread http://www.forex-tsd.com/general-dis...ing-forum.html as well.
