Hi Andrea,

You would need to provide a better explanation regarding how exactly you want to proceed. What exact information are you looking for?

Best regards,

Button event

Hi Panagiotis,

I'm creating an indicator that has two chart buttons, one opens a long position and the other short. Graphically I managed to implement them as you can see from the photo, but now I should implement the action or behavior. I helped myself with the examples and the guide provided by the site but I haven't succeeded yet. Thanks for the support.

RE: Button event

here is the code:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using cAlgo.API;
using cAlgo.API.Collections;
using cAlgo.API.Indicators;
using cAlgo.API.Internals;

namespace cAlgo
{
    [Indicator(IsOverlay = true, TimeZone = TimeZones.UTC,AccessRights = AccessRights.None)]
    public class NewIndicator2 : Indicator
    {

        protected override void Initialize()
        {
             var stackPanel = new StackPanel
           {
               HorizontalAlignment = HorizontalAlignment.Right,
               VerticalAlignment = VerticalAlignment.Bottom,
               BackgroundColor = Color.Gold,
               Opacity = 0.7,           
           };    
           
           for (int i = 0; i < 2; i++)
           {
               var button = new Button();     
               if (i == 0)
               {
                   button.Text = "Buy";
                   button.Button_Click_Buy();
                   
               }else{
                   
                   button.Text = "Sell";
                   button.Button_Click_Sell();

              }
               
               button.Margin = 10;
               stackPanel.AddChild(button);
           }
           
           Chart.AddControl(stackPanel);
        }
        private void Button_Click_Buy(ButtonClickEventArgs  ????)
        {
             ?????????
        }
         private void Button_Click_Sell(ButtonClickEventArgs  ????)
        {
             ?????????
        }

        public override void Calculate(int index)
        {
            // Calculate value at specified index
            // Result[index] = 
        }
    }
}

RE: Button event

I solved it with cbot and not with the indicator. However, I'm curious to see your solution. If you want I'll attach the code and tell me what you think.

Hi Andrea,

You cannot execute orders through indicators. It needs to be a cBot.
