check for candlestick bartype only

[asmmbillah]

Hi, I want to print something when chart bartype is only candle stick, any other bartype should retrun false. I cannot find anything, to get a bool true, if chart bartype is only candlstick bar type. Please advise.

Hello asmmbillah, thanks for your post.

This is not the BarsType, but the ChartStyle. We have an example on how to identify the chart style being used here:

Please let me know if I can assist any further.

thanks, but that does not give a clear idea about current chart style. I am going to create a bool for if statement. any advice?

Hello asmmbillah, thanks for the follow up.

My apologies, that was an oversight on my part. You can get the ChartStyle like this (within the OnStateChanged method):

else if (State == State.DataLoaded)
{
if(ChartBars != null)
{
Print(ChartBars.Properties.ChartStyle);
}
}

Please let me know if you have any further questions.
