Being able to mark visually conditions of interest on the chart is useful for the discretionary trader. With NinjaScript you can draw various objects onto your chart to alert you of these points of interest.

Key concepts in this example:

• Drawing unique diamonds to mark the beginning and end of uptrends
• Drawing and updating a single rectangle that marks the current uptrend
