// Select an order by its ticket number
if (this.api.SelectOrder(12345, EOrderSelectMode.SELECT_ORDER_BY_TICKET)) {
  // Get the order's opening time
  const openTime = this.api.GetOrderOpenTime();
  // Get current time
  const currentTime = this.api.TimeCurrent();

  // Calculate how long the order has been open (in days)
  const daysOpen = currentTime - openTime;
  console.log(`Order has been open for ${daysOpen.toFixed(2)} days`);
}

• An order must be selected first using SelectOrder before calling this method.
