Hi chernish2,

Thanks for posting in our forum. Try the below

        var symbol = Symbols.GetSymbol("EURUSD");
        var askPrice = symbol.Ask;

Best Regards,

depthOfMarket.AskEntries.Count

seem to be equal to zero so I can't obtain a ticker.

This is true only for the situation actually after creating. Next MarketOfDepth events should return valid values.

Also, for symbol ticker is more convenient to use `Symbol.Tick` event

var symbol = Symbols.GetSymbol("EURUSD");
symbol.Tick += symbolTickEventArgs => Print(string.Format("Bid: {0}, Ask: {1}, Symbol object: {2}", symbolTickEventArgs.Bid, symbolTickEventArgs.Ask, symbolTickEventArgs.Symbol));

Ok, this is perfectly fine! But I have some more questions.

1. When I'm doing 

Symbols.GetSymbols()

I'm getting a list of all available symbols like Forex, Metals, Indicies etc. How can I filter out only Forex (fiat) pairs?

2. I'm drawing a rectangle like this:

var rect = Chart.DrawRectangle("rect", MarketSeries.OpenTime[5], y1, MarketSeries.OpenTime.LastValue, y2, color);
rect.IsFilled = true;
rect.ZIndex = 1000;
rect.Color = Color.Chocolate;

How can I change its opacity and Z-Index? With any valy assigned to rect.ZIndex the thing still staying on top of everything.

Thank you!

Hi chernish2,

1) There is no way to separate symbols based on asset classes at the moment.

2) You can control the opacity of your object by modifying the alpha of your color.

2) At the moment objects drawn on the chart cannot move behind the candlesticks.
