How to access collection of exisiting indicators on a chart

[lel4866]

In my custom indicator, I would like to access another indicator on the same chart and set some of its properties. So...I need both the collection of indicators on the chart and some way to determine the class of each indicator.


Is this possible?

Hello lel4866,

Thanks for your post.

This would be possible to do through reflection and looping through the ChartControl.Indicators collection, however we generally would not support reflecting another indicator to change that indicator's properties.

If you would like to pursue this unsupported approach, you could reference the Facebook ShareService's CopyTo() method for an example using reflection. External resources can also provide further direction for using reflection.
