chartContextMenuActions

The library calls chartContextMenuActions when users open the context menu on the chart. This method also renders the Trade button in the context menu.

This method should return an array of ActionMetaInfo elements, each of them representing one context menu item.

Signature

chartContextMenuActions(context: TradeContext, options?: DefaultContextMenuActionsParams) => Promise<ActionMetaInfo[]>

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
contextTradeContextcontext object passed by a browser
options?DefaultContextMenuActionsParamsdefault options for the context menu action parameters

Returns

A promise that resolves to an array of ActionMetaInfo , which may be empty. In that case, the Trade button will be removed from the context menu.

Promise<ActionMetaInfo[]>


connectionStatus

Defines a connection status for the Broker API. If any other value than 1 ("Connected") is returned, the Account Manager will display an endless spinner instead of users' trading data. If you want to handle other scenarios, for example when the status is disconnected, you need to manage this scenario within your implementation and use the IBrokerConnectionAdapterHost.connectionStatusUpdate method.

If the method is not implemented or returns a value other than 1, the following error will appear in the console: Method connectionStatus is not properly implemented.

Returns

ConnectionStatus
