How do I get the time value of a vertical line that appears on the chart

[sixteencorners]

I want to use the time value of a vertical line that appears on the chart. The vertical line is unlocked and I can displace it.
Thanks

Hello sixteencorners,

If the drawing object is manually drawn, you would need to loop through the drawing objects collection. There is a post that explains this further here: http://ninjatrader.com/support/forum...1&postcount=10

Otherwise if this is a line being drawn from NinjaScript, you would likely need to store the line its self as a variable, or the Time[0] value at the time you draw the line.

I look forward to being of further assistance.

Thanks Jesse;
I am a newbie, could you tell me how to store the line as a variable?

Hello sixteencorners,

You can find an example for this in the helpguide here:

http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpGuides/nt7/iverticalline.htm?zoom_highlightsub=vertical%2Bline

In the example you will see

 Print(vLine.BarsAgo);

To know what other properties the vLine object has, you would need to refer to the help guide or in the NinjaScript editor after typing the period after vLine you would see the properties.

vLine is the variable name in this example, the type of variable is IVerticalLine which is the object DrawVerticalLine returns. This would be the reference to this specific line.

I look forward to being of further assistance.
