Hi

Is it possible for a strategy to programmatically detect when the user changes instrument or period on the active chart?

Cheers
Tony

It is possible to get a chart by calling
IChart chart;
chart = context.getChart(Instrument.EURUSD);

this chart can be checked on each tick to see if its period has changed:
period.equals(chart.getFeedDescriptor().getPeriod())
