To start-- i have zero experience using the api function here-- but trying to learn..
What im trying to accomplish is to get the community data (specifically short vs long positions and volume)... I want to pull this data into my mt4 so i can then use it.... My thinking is i can call the api url for the community outlook data (
https://www.myfxbook.com/api/get-community-outlook.xml?session=DSL07vu14QxHWErTIAFrH40) and then somehow request the long and short positions and volume ..
<shortPercentage>55</shortPercentage>
<longPercentage>44</longPercentage>
<shortVolume>1142.58</shortVolume>
<longVolume>905.47</longVolume>
A. Will this work? Or is the api only for android/apple phones apps?
B. I know id use WebRequest() to call the url but how would i pull the desired info out... Or, is there a way to just request the info wanted?
Thanks...
