Hello,

In my strategy, it is necessary to know where in the chart (price and time) the user clicked the mouse. The idea is to issue an order with calculated SL and TP when the user presses a combination of key + mouse button. For instance, CTRL + left button.
How can this be done?

thanks

The current implementation of API does not provide access to chart mouse events. However, what you can try to do, is adding a chart object from your strategy and depending on users actions with it, applying some strategy business logic, see the following examples:

and

Note that strategy can only work with its own objects (the ones that it has created).
