Accessing chart objects drawn by custom indicator from bot
Accessing chart objects drawn by custom indicator from bot

Hi!
Posted this morning but now I can't find my post so I guess I'll have to post again.
I have a custom indicator that draws trendlines on the chart. I want to access these lines and their coordinates from my bot.
However, during backtesting, in my bot Chart.Objects is always empty although I see the trendlines on the chart.
Print(Chart.Objects.Count()) => 0
Also if I try to access the indicator's Chart object, it is also empty.
_myCustomIndicator = Indicators.GetIndicator<MyCustomIndicator>();
Print(_myCustomIndicator.Chart.Objects.Count()) => 0;
How can I access the trendlines I see drawn during back testing from my bot. Right now, only if the bot draws the lines itself, it can access them.
Thanks!
/Erik

Hi Erik,
Can you provide both the indicator and cBot code?
