How an indicator can access the Account selected in ChartTrader

[sbgtrading]

Hello!

What's the NinjaScript statement that lets an indicator query the ChartTrader form and pull the "Account" and "Order qty" field?

Hi sbg, thanks for posting.

The ChartControl Quantity can be accessed by:

ChartControl.Dispatcher.InvokeAsync((Action)(() => { NinjaTrader.Gui.Tools.QuantityUpDown quantitySelector = (Window.GetWindow(ChartControl.Parent).FindFirst(" ChartTraderControlQuantitySelector") as NinjaTrader.Gui.Tools.QuantityUpDown);

quantitySelector.Value = 5; }));

The selected account can be accessed by:

ChartControl.Dispatcher.InvokeAsync((Action)(() =>
            {
                        //You have to put the stuff below within this ChartC ontrol.Dispatcher.InvokeAsync((Action)(() =>, beca use you are trying to access something on a differ ent thread.
                        xAlselector = Window.GetWi ndow(ChartControl.Parent).FindFirst("ChartTraderCo ntrolAccountSelector") as NinjaTrader.Gui.Tools.Ac countSelector;
                        Print(xAlselector.Selected Account.ToString());
            }));

Kind regards,
