When to know when connection is lost

[blar58]

Hello,

I have a problem with my timers that execute code when the connection has been lost. I need to know when I am losing connection.

I know that OnConnectionStatus does exactly that but it seems to work only on strategy not indicators. Am I right and if yes how can I find out about connection status from an indicator?



Many thanks for helping

if (Bars != null
&& Bars.Count > 0
&& Bars.MarketData != null
&& Bars.MarketData.Connection.PriceStatus == Cbi.ConnectionStatus.Connected
&& Bars.Session.InSession(Bars.MarketData.Connection.Now, Bars.Period, true, Bars.BarsType))
{
//you are connected, and are in an active session
}
