    What event get's called when changing instruments?

    Is there an even that gets fired off when you switch instruments in a chart? For instance, if I go from ES to YM, which event gets fired? I don't think OnTermination() gets called

    funk101, according to my testing you should see an OnTermination call for the changed to instrument, as a new instance of your script is then run here.

      It seems that ChartControl.ChartObjects.InsertComplete is called BEFORE OnTermination() when changing instruments. Is there a way to determine when this is occurring?

      In other words, is there some other event that's called when changing an instrument, so I can know this before InsertComplete is fired?

      Thanks!

        Sorry Daniel, there would be unfortunately no exposed Instrument change event you could query here - what are you trying to do?

          It looks like ChartControl.ChartObjects.ClearComplete is what I'm looking for. It's called right as the instrument change is initiated, does "some work", then it's called again, AND THEN OnTermination() is called, and on down the line.

          When it was doing that "work", it is calling InsertComplete for each of the lines I had on my chart, which was messing up my indicator. Now, I just set a flag in a ClearComplete handler, to let my indicator know what is going on.

          Thanks!
