access instrument selector

[1001111]

In an indicator, I have to use OnRender() to determine which instrument is selected.


With

gAccountSelector = Window.GetWindow(ChartControl.Parent).FindFirst("C hartTraderControlAccountSelector") as NinjaTrader.Gui.Tools.AccountSelector;
gAccount = gAccountSelector.SelectedAccount;

Do I access an account.

NinjaTrader.Gui.Tools.InstrumentSelector instrumentSelector = (Window.GetWindow(ChartControl.Parent).FindFirst(" ChartTraderControlInstrumentSelector") as NinjaTrader.Gui.Tools.InstrumentSelector);

I tried this way to access the InstrumentSelector.
But it does not work.

How can I determine the current setting of the instrument?

Hello 1001111,

You can use the following to access the instrument in the chart trader:

ChartControl.Dispatcher.InvokeAsync(()=>{
    NinjaTrader.Gui.Chart.ChartTrader chartTraderControl =Window.GetWindow(ChartControl.Parent).FindFirst(" ChartWindowChartTraderControl") as NinjaTrader.Gui.Chart.ChartTrader;
    Print(chartTraderControl.Instrument);
});

Try using OwnerChart,

ChartControl.Dispatcher.InvokeAsync(() =>
{
    Print(ChartControl.OwnerChart.ChartTrader.Instrument);
});​
