    Jump To Date

    Is it possible to jump to a certain date using an indicator? I have an indicator that calculates some outputs and displays them on a form. I want to jump to certain dates where the indicator gives me an output, it is really annoying to scroll through everything

    If there is no indicator function that I can use to jump, is it possible to use send keys to accomplish the same thing (i would be sending the page up and page down keys to quickly scroll thru)?

    There isn't anything supported that would allow you to do this however you might be able to find something with the ChartControl properties.

    Let me know if i can further assist.

      Thanks I figured it out, once I open the form in OnStartUp, i need to pass in the current indicator's object. Then activate the window and scroll thru, here's some code for anyone who stumbles on this forum later.
      Code:
      public class Test : Indicator{
      ....
        protected override void OnStartUp(){
      	
      	form1 = new Form1(this)
      	form1.Show();
        }
      
        protected override void OnTermination(){
      	form1.Dispose(true);
        }
      
        public void scrollMe(){
      	ChartControl.ParentForm.Activate();
      	SendKeys.SendWait("{PGUP}");
        }
      ....
      }
      
      public partial class Form1 : Form
      {
      	private Test vp;
              public Form1(Test vp){
      
      		this.vp = vp;
      		InitializeComponent();
      	}
             private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
      	{
      			vp.scrollMe();
      	}
      ...
      }
