Is there a way to see if a bar as a plotted dot above it?

Hello

An indicator (HiddenGap) is use to plot a dot above / under some bars

Using another indicator, is there a way to know if a bar has a plotted dot above / under it without redoing all the process that was use to define the dot placement

You can use GV to read another indicator's values.

Hello sir

The reading of the value will be done asynchronously using my mouse click event indicator. Once I click on a bar, I want to see if a dot is above the bar

I had an idea and I will try this weekend to add a text "Space" character at the same place of the plotted dot and when click on the bar, read back the text. Since the plotted and Text will be always 4 pip below / above the high / low I should be able to get what I need

Also, I just read that MC could reference an indicator to another one. I just read that an indicator value could be liked to another using the input value. I will see if a True/False value could be use with my need
