To Jlongo,

Sorry but I don't think this answers my query. The methods suggested by you only fetch the last tick, the last tick by shift and the last tick by adding date and time. I want to fetch the last tick of the previous week in the current week and I may have to fetch it at various times during the whole current week.

Please suggest a way to do that.

Regards,

Terry.

Hi Terry:

if you try with something like:

List<ITick> ticks = history.getTicks(Instrument.EURUSD, friday_close_time_minus_some_time_just_in_case, friday_close_plus_some_time_just_in_case);
int last = ticks.size() - 1;
for  (x=last, x > 0, x--){
// find the last tick with volume
}

With this way you can get the last tick on friday getting all available ticks near the pre-time-close and plus-time-close i think. Don't know if there exists a better way.

Trade well

To Dukascopy Support,

I wish to fetch the last tick of Friday of previous week at any time during the current week. The link suggested by you only shows how to get past market offline times and check if the market is offline or not as per my understanding. Could you plz elaborate how these methods answer my query?

Regards,

Terry.

From market hours you can get the session end time. Take that end time and fetch ticks over the minute before that end time. From those ticks take the last tick and that will be the last tick of that trading session. Should you encounter any problems implementing the logic, please support your further inquiries with your example strategy.
