Method to get all objects across multiple chart/symbols (not current chart)
Method to get all objects across multiple chart/symbols (not current chart)
14 Oct 2021, 17:40
My indicator checks multiple symbols and displays the results on the current chart in a canvas. I would like to get all horizontal lines manually drawn for a symbol and check for resistance zone contact.
It seems FindAllObjects is only available for the current chart. Is there an API in cTrader (currently using 4.1) to get all objects from a specific symbol?

Hi,
You can only have access to the chart objects that your indicator/cBot is attached to, you can't access other charts objects.
Just wanted to check before I requested an enhancement. You can access market data through different symbols so it's logical returning objects from different charts should be available from the API.

Hi,
Not logical based on current design of cTrader automate, as each indicator/cBot is attached to one single chart and its area of work is only that chart.
You can create a suggestion for this and if other users voted for it the team might consider to add such a feature.
