Screenshot upon position entry

Is there a way to take a screenshot when I enter a long or short position in the strategy builder and share it to Twitter

Hello Tyler803,

This would not be possible using the Strategy Builder and would require some custom C# to achieve.

Below is a link to an example using undocumented custom C# that demonstrates taking a screenshot of a chart.

Is there an API to save the chart image from inside an indicator code?

Once the screenshot is saved, this can be emailed with SendMail().
