How to bind SystemTray Progressbar to a property in selected PivotItem DataContext

Question

I got an app with a Pivot and 3 PivotItems. Each PivotItem has its own DataContext, and the DataContext has a property named IsLoading.

It is possible to bind the SystemTray.ProgressIndicator IsVisible property to the selected pivotitem DataContext.IsLoading property?

Here is What I tryied:

<shell:SystemTray.ProgressIndicator>
    <shell:ProgressIndicator 
       IsVisible="{Binding ElementName=pivot, Path=SelectedItem.DataContext.IsLoading}" />
</shell:SystemTray.ProgressIndicator>
<Grid Background="Transparent">
    <controls:Pivot x:Name="pivot">

        <controls:PivotItem Header="pivot item"
                                Margin="0,28,24,0"
                                DataContext="{Binding DCOne}" />

        <controls:PivotItem Header="pivot item"
                            Margin="0,28,24,0"
                            DataContext="{Binding DCTwo}" />

        <controls:PivotItem Header="pivot item"
                            Margin="0,28,24,0"
                            DataContext="{Binding DCThree}" />
</Grid>
