I have been battling with this with Line Charts for a few hours and came up with a solution using Cursor position and use the MouseUp or MouseDown event to get the date time object from the X axis.

You can change the Cursor colour if you need to hide it, and please refer to Cursors in the Chart Samples provided with MSCharts.

private void chartLine_MouseUp(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
{
    DateTime dateTime = DateTime.FromOADate(chartLine.ChartAreas[0].CursorX.Position);
}
