MQL4 makes these accessible via pre-defined variables Bid and Ask, and arrays Open, High, Low, Close, Time and Volume.

In MQL5, the same prices can be retrieved in 3 ways, via:
--
1) iTime, iOpen, iHigh, iLow, iClose and iTickVolume
2) CopyTime, CopyOpen, CopyHigh, CopyLow, CopyClose, CopyTickVolume functions
3) CopyRates, using the MqlRates struct

For further information on Time Series access in MQL5, please visit:

All content is specifically geared towards algorithmic traders currently using MQL4, with the aim of making a case for transition from MQL4 to MQL5, and providing the knowledge needed to ensure it is a smooth, educated endeavour.
