Indicator GetAccountValue equivalent

[TiggerTrader]

What is the Indicator equivalent of

double dProfit = GetAccountValue(AccountItem.RealizedProfitLoss);

I can't seem to find it.

Thanks

Hello TiggerTrader,

Thank you for your post.

There are supported methods to access the account information from an indicator. Indicators are not assigned to any specific account and thus have no methods or functions for the account.

Indicators are assigned to any specific account and thus have no methods or functions for the account.

Not sure what that means.

Anyway, let's ask a more direct question. What ARE the

supported methods to access the account information from an indicator

?

Hello TiggerTrader,

That was my typo in the last response.

The correct answer is that the indicators are not assigned to any account and thus have NO methods or functions to access information from the account. The indicators cannot access account information.

Bummer. Can you sneak that functionality in before the next release?

TiggerTrader, there are no planned changes in this regard to the current releases. However we do have extended support for account access on our lists for the next major update of the platform.
