IDrawTool

[blar58]

In NinjaTrader 7 I had the following code

foreach(IDrawObject draw in DrawObjects)
{
if(draw.Tag == xxx)
{
Do Stuff
}
}

What would be the equivalent in NinjaTrader 8 ?

Thank you !

What would be the equivalent in NinjaTrader 8 ?

Replace IDrawObject with DrawingTool ..

[blar58]

casting DrawingTool object

foreach(DrawingTool draw in DrawObjects)
{
if(draw.Tag == "RegressionChannel")
{
RegressionChannel regression = (RegressionChannel)draw;
if(regression.EndY > regression.StartY)
{
regressionIsRising = true;
regressionIsFalling = false;
}
else
if(regression.EndY < regression.StartY)
{
regressionIsRising = false;
regressionIsFalling = true;
}
}
}

Sorry part of the code was missing. My problem is really with casting the DrawingTool object as RegressionChannel

[blar58]

here is the method :
EndAnchor.Price and StartAnchor.Price = 0

foreach(DrawingTool draw in DrawObjects)
{
				
      if(draw.Tag == "RegressionChannel"+sessionCount)
      {
          NinjaTrader.NinjaScript.DrawingTools.RegressionChannel regression =       (NinjaTrader.NinjaScript.DrawingTools.RegressionChannel)draw;
					
if(regression.EndAnchor.Price > regression.StartAnchor.Price)
{
             regressionIsRising = true;
             regressionIsFalling = false;
}
else
if(regression.EndAnchor.Price < regression.StartAnchor.Price)
{
	regressionIsRising = false;
	regressionIsFalling = true;
}	
}
			}

I am still stucked because this method not working.
I am just trying to know if the RegressionChannel is rising or falling.

Hello blar58,

Thank you for your patience. I was able to get this working using the following:

foreach(DrawingTool draw in DrawObjects){
    if(draw is NinjaTrader.NinjaScript.DrawingTools.RegressionChannel){
        NinjaTrader.NinjaScript.DrawingTools.RegressionChannel regression = draw as NinjaTrader.NinjaScript.DrawingTools.RegressionChannel;
        Print(regression.StartAnchor.Price);
        Print(regression.EndAnchor.Price);
    }
}

Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.

Thank you for your reply Michael.

I still get the same problem. Price is 0.
However StartAnchor. BarsAgo and EndAnchor.BarsAgo work fine.
Only StartAnchor.Price and EndAnchor.Price don't work.

I use the Draw.RegessionChannel from OnBarUpdate().

I even tried to simplify the whole process and went this way :

NinjaTrader.NinjaScript.DrawingTools.RegressionChannel regression = Draw.RegressionChannel(this,"RegressionChannel"+sessionCount, false, 11, 1, Brushes.Blue, DashStyleHelper.Solid, 1, Brushes.Gray, DashStyleHelper.Solid, 1, Brushes.Blue, DashStyleHelper.Solid, 1); 
							
Print(" Start : "+regression.StartAnchor.Price);
Print("End:"+regression.EndAnchor.Price);

I get 0 !

Hello blar58,

I have confirmed this behavior and submitted this a bug report for NinjaTrader 8. I will update this thread when I have more information (although it may be a few days or more).

Thank you for your continued patience in the meantime.

OK

Thank you Michael
