Reading text from user in mql4

[KNHConsultants]

Hello i hope someone can help me. I want to know which function to use to capture when a user uses the 'draw text' tool on the chart. 

What i am trying to use allow the user to use the text tool to type on the chart then the EA would interpret what the user typed and use it in executing a trade.

Nice idea :).

You can use OnChartEvent() to capture the moment when the object has been created or changed, then check through it's type to make sure it's a text object, before trying to interpret it's content.
