EA_OBJPROP_CHART_ID:

Do you want to place a Chart objects (OBJ_CHART) on the chart and use it as conventional chart? It's possible.

This Expert Advisor is a demo of working with OBJ_CHART objects as conventional charts. You can set custom color settings, attach indicators etc. The only thing you need is the handle of OBJ_CHART object. Using the Chart Operations you may add and delete indicators (ChartIndicatorAdd() and ChartIndicatorDelete()), set chart Period, Symbol etc.

The EA_OBJPROP_CHART_ID Expert Advisor, does the following actions:

  • Adds a PriceChannel indicator, included in the standard package of the client terminal (located in terminal_data_folder\MQL5\Indicators\Examples);
  • Creates a subwindow using Subwindow indicator (copy Subwindow.mq5 to terminal_data_folder\MQL5\Indicators);
  • Creates an object (in the subwindow) of OBJ_CHART type with chart symbol, but D1 and H4 timeframes;
  • For each object of OBJ_CHART type it adds a Price_Channel indicator with default parameters and changes background color.

Thanks. This was just next up on my list for testing, glad to see this functionality has already been completed and displayed here; I can see a number of nifty uses for this functionality.
