Getting Swap value from API

[dackjaniels]

Hi,

After selecting an order using OrderSelect() it's possible to get many details of an order from the order history but I can't see an option to get the swap value (as listed in account history). Is this possible?

I would calculate it using something like

Code: Select all

swapvalue := OrderProfit - (OrderProfitPips * OrderLots * PipValue);

but of course PipValue is not available either :-/

I would really like to see these functions available in the API.

Regards,
Steve

Yes, for now there is no function to get Swap yet, we'll add it later.
