Show Plot PriceMarker but not Plot line

Hi

Is there a way to show a Plot's PriceMarker but not show the Plot line.

thanks

Hello,

You can set the Plot color to the same color as the background of the chart. This will hide the plot from the chart, but there should be the numeric value and outline of the price marker on the right panel.

thx Mathew

yes that does as you say, thx for that.

however is it poss to get some color onto that marker ? perhaps by the FormatPriceMarker override ?

here is the answer for me.

use PlotStyle.Hash when adding the Plot

use the following two statements in the OnBarUpdate override.

Values[0].Set(yournumber);
Values[0].Set(1,0);

the second statement overwrites the prior bar plot value with a zero value, so you should see a horizontal line at the zero level.

you will get a single plot marker on the current bar at your level and you will still get a colored price marker (using the Hash style means that the markers are not connected to each other, so you get the single plot at your number while all the other plots become zero - if you use the Line style then you would get a vertical line from zero to your number on the current bar, as Ninja connects the zero to your number)

hope this helps someone
