Vladimir Makhnin ChartScreenShot function, but I don't know how to implement it

Do you want me to rewrite all the documentation here? Or do you want to read it there?

Example:

#property description "Советник демонстрирует создание серии скриншотов текущего графика"
#property description "с помощью функции ChartScreenShot(). Имя файла для удобства также"
#property description "выводится на график. Высота и ширина рисунков задается макросами."

Vladimir Makhnin ChartScreenShot function, but I don't know how to implement it

If you want an example of how to use it, here:

input int Screenshot_Seconds;
input datetime Starting_From;
input string ID_Name;

...

datetime now_time;
datetime screen_timer;

...

void MakeScreenshot()
  {
   if(Screenshot_Seconds<=0)
      return;

   if(now_time>screen_timer)
     {
      if(screen_timer==0)
         screen_timer=Starting_From;

      while(screen_timer<=now_time)
         screen_timer+=Screenshot_Seconds;

      string time_text=TimeToString(now_time,TIME_DATE|TIME_SECONDS);

      StringReplace(time_text,".","-");
      StringReplace(time_text,":","-");

      string name=ID_Name+"\\"+ID_Name+"-"+time_text+".gif";

      ChartScreenShot(chart,name,Screenshot_Width,Screenshot_Height);
     }
  }

here, screenshots are taken at set intervals Screenshot_Seconds starting from Starting_From time

the now_time variable should be updated in OnTick or OnTimer

Well of course points don't need to be compiled! 😁

Dots means your code, your trading logic/analysis/calculations should be there, it's just an example.

This code https://www.mql5.com/ru/code/16695 has an alert - you can add it to almost any indicator.

Just make sure you enter your indicator correctly
