For Strategy to access ALL charts open on the JForex platform,
for all instruments, and charting types, how do I get them?

Do I need to use IContext.getCharts(Instrument) for all possible instruments,
using each Instrument in turn? (I could do that... but doesn't sound elegant)

But can I get the set of ALL opened charts in just one call? Not charts
opened by my Strategy, but any charts that are open?

Thanks for any tips!

Unfortunately it cannot be done in one call under the present implementation.

// Grab references to all open charts
Set<IChart> allcharts = new HashSet<IChart>();
for(Instrument eachinstrument : Instrument.values())
   allcharts.addAll(context.getCharts(eachinstrument));
           
// Output the charts we picked up
for(IChart eachchart : allcharts)
   console.getOut().println(eachchart.getInstrument() + " (" + eachchart.getFeedDescriptor().getPeriod() + ")");

EUR/USD (Ticks)
USD/JPY (Hourly)
USD/CHF (15 Mins)
GBP/USD (30 Mins)

Thanks so much. That is what I am doing... for each instrument...

It's not so much overhead...

Good Trading !!

Also, I cannot do what I actually wanted to do. In a JForex Platform Hosted Strategy...

...I wanted to setChartAutoshift() for each chart.

BUT, that's available only through IChartPresentationManager which is...
...available only in Standalone mode.

Oh, well... No big deal.

I work with Standalone, but just wanted a Simple Strategy which would set charts to the autoshifted state within the JForex platform, But... it Cannot be Done.

IContext.getCharts() which gets all opened charts, available with JForex-API 2.8.1.
