Did you go to tools, options, and make sure "enable dde server" is checked?

yup, already. so far ive manage to stream live data form MT4 for BID, ASK, HI, LO, TIME and QUOTE. you can find this sample in "DDE-Sample.xls" in your MT4 folder.

if possible i want to retrieve the open & close price in certain time. im thinking maybe need an EA to transfer the data to csv file.

Should be possible, but you need to enable the DDE server inside MT4
