Hello LoganJKTrader,

Are you trying to submit orders from a drawing tool?

This wouldn't be directly supported but might be possible using undocumented code.

This might be something easier to accomplish in an indicator and not with a drawing tool.

thank you for your reply ChelseaB, the idea was not that it had to be a drawing tool, if it can work in AddOns that is fine, or an indicator, either one will allow part of the idea to work, how will I be able to subscribe to a on mouse click event in an indicator, are there any examples or a hotkey + click methods I can implement that will allow one click order placement.

Hello LoganJKTrader,

I've made a new thread as your inquiry is not related at all to the thread you have posted in of creating a custom drawing tool.

Be sure to create a new forum thread for new inquiries.

Below are links to example indicators you may find helpful as you build your script.
