Use EA Builder To Get High Price ar Zero Hour

Description: Use the MQL Hour() function to check that the hour is 1, and if so, use the function fnGetHighest to get the highest values between the 0 and 1 bars. This will give you the highest price value between 0 and 1 because it will only execute the function when the Hour is equal to 1. Although the function may be called multiple times, the value will not change because the high has been established for that period.

Note the parenthesis after Hour(). Earlier versions of the MetaTrader compiler would compile without the parenthesis, but they are now required. A new version of VTS being released shortly will ensure the parenthesis are there before building.
