would it be technically possible (without great difficulty - I mean just without anything too convolulted) to create  an indicator that detects if the chart's latest bar is visible?

I have a problem when I look at the chart that sometimes I don't realize it is scrolled back.

Yes.

Bars on the chart

• Chart.BarsTotal - gets the number of the bars on the chart.
• Chart.FirstVisibleBarIndex - gets the bar index of the first visible bar on the chart.
• Chart.LastVisibleBarIndex - get the bar index of the last visible bar on the chart.
• Chart.MaxVisibleBars - gets the maximum number of bars that can be shown on the chart with the current size and zoom level.
