Will it also return specific withdrawals? In the example in the API docs, it only shows a closed trade:
<response error='false' message=''>    <history>        <transaction>            <openDate>03/01/2010 14:13</openDate>            <closeDate>03/01/2010 15:26</closeDate>            <symbol>GBPUSD</symbol>            <action>Buy Limit</action>            <sizing>                <type>lots</type>                <value>0.04</value>            </sizing>            <openPrice>1.48310</openPrice>            <closePrice>1.49340</closePrice>            <tp>1.48810</tp>            <sl>0.00000</sl>            <pips>0.0</pips>            <profit>0.00</profit>            <comment>Best trade ever</comment>            <interest>12.1</interest>            <commission>0</commission>        </transaction>    </history> </response> If a withdrawal *would* be returned from this function, what tags would it be wrapped in? |

It would be wrapped with the same tags. Check the 'action' tag for the transaction type.

Would the action be 'Withdrawal'?
I'm referring to actually withdrawing money from the account, not a losing trade (which I've noticed MT also calls a withdrawal for whatever reason). With that in mind, what tag would the $ amount withdrawn from the account be wrapped in? Thank you for your insight! |

Yes, it would be a withdrawal. The types are marked the same as in your Metatrader platform. The 'withdrawal' definition may change from broker to broker.
All the other tags are the same - the 'profit' tag would represent the amount of the withdrawal. Got a question? Need help? Send me a message! |
