Price updates while dragging object
Pedro Sanchez: How do you guys do to get price updates from an object that is being dragged...
- Same way you do with an object not being dragged, you just read it.
- Drag event is when the object is released, not while being moved.
- Instead, wait for a mouse move and read the object. See my GUI/Trade Assistant EA where I monitor the lines for changes.

How do you guys do to get price updates from an object that is being dragged....let me explain..
I have an horizontal line placed at a let's say price XXXX, so when I click on that line to drag it up, I can get the CHARTEVENT_OBJECT_DRAG event, but it seems like it only gets received in the onChartEvent once the line has been dropped, so basically I am only able to get the final price where the horizontal line was dropped YYYY, but not the different prices while it is being moved.
Maybe is not possible?
I was thinking in some sort of combination with the CHARTEVENT_MOUSE_MOVE event but...no luck so far.
