Referencing Chart-Trader order

[IanS00]

Is there a way to get the order ID from an order that's active on the chart trader? I am developing an indicator, and want to highlight text on the chart if there's an active chart-trader order (i.e. orderId != null).

Hello IanS00,

You can use the addon framework account class to monitor order events however that won't tell you specifically which chart that order came from if you have multiple charts open for that instrument. You can see the order values like the orders id or name using the passed in arguments. There is a sample of observing the accounts orders here:

Thanks for sharing them. I also have been looking for similar addons. Well, I'll have ti test them on my own skin.
