Digital Clock on Chart

[Turtle Trader]

Is it possible to put a digital clock on the chart in a fixed text position...one that does not work inside to OnBarUpdate?

(Because OnBarUpdate only triggers on tick data, not seconds or minute boundaries...)

Sample code?

Hello TurtleTrader,

Yes, we have a sample on custom events available here:

OK, I think I've got it...

The timer event can trigger another event that writes the digital clock (DrawTextFixed) on the chart?

and.....where is the Dispose() method called for cleanup?

Thanks

You can follow the sample closely for Dispose usage.

public override void Dispose()
{
// Make sure you include base.Dispose() whenever you override the Dispose() method
base.Dispose();

// Cleans up our Timer object
myTimer.Dispose();
}
