the reason I ask is that if ChartTrader goes from Off to On (Shown), then this event seems to not fire:

accountSelector.SelectionChanged

I notice this if the chart is loaded with ChartTrader Off, then toggled On, the event does not fire

and then if the Account is changed, the event does not fire until I reload the indicators...

???

Hello llanqui,

The ChartControl.Properties.ChartTraderVisibility enum property would provide if the ChartTrader is visible.
