Hello support,

I found out the possibility to send a broadcast message (https://www.dukascopy.com/wiki/index.php ... st_message).
Unfortunately a strategy cannot send a broadcast message to itself, only to other strategies.
I think, if this would be possible anyway (e.g. with an additional option for IEngine.broadcast method), this would be also a possible solution for the problem described above.
(create a broadcast message inside an ActionListener of a graphical object and process this message inside onMessage event)

Can you please consider to extend the broadcast method with this feature ?

Hello support,

I want to ask you again to consider the enhancement of IEngine.broadcast() method with an additional option so that a strategy can send a message to itself.

Please elaborate why do you need such functionality. It sounds pretty strange - "send a message to itself".

I already posted the original reason of this request detailed in the following thread (my posts from january 2012): viewtopic.php?f=65&t=45527

Someone created this new feature request topic and moved my last posts from "incorrect thread" topic to here, therefore the context was lost.

I think, a broadcast message from a strategy to itself is a possible simple solution to avoid the runtime error described in "incorrect thread" topic.
For example, I can send a broadcast message when a custom button in a bottom tab was clicked, and then pocessing this event inside onMessage() function of the same strategy.
The advantage is that I can process user interface actions immediately, without waiting until the next tick is arrived. This is very important for scalping !

Please take a look at the attached example: how to submit an order without broadcasting.
