2. Fixed incorrect total margin utilization calculation.

3.16

1. Added basic support for Strategy Tester backtesting in MT5.
2. Added automatic commission retrieval from the broker's server in MetaTrader 5 version. It is now a default method. Set AutoCommission to false to disable.

6. Changed how SL/TP is applied post-opening in the Market Execution mode. It will now retry up to 10 times per position if failing. This change applies to MT5 only. In MT4, it already worked liked that before.

14. Fixed a potential freeze issue when OnTimer gets called during deinitialization.
15. Fixed an issue with additional take-profits not getting pre-filled when main take-profit is set using the P hotkey despite the fact that such pre-filling was required according to the input parameters.
16. Fixed a compilation bug that could appear in some MT4 platforms due to another version of the CompareDoubles function declared in stdlib.mqh.
