Show Plot PriceMarker but not Plot line

[I_Quant]

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 ?

[I_Quant]

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

A related question... Is it possible output the plot line, but not the price on the right-axis? (opposite of the initial question.

Thanks!

Hi Daniel,

You can disable this by: right clicking on your chart--> select "Indicators" and set the "Price market(s)" options to false.

Please let me know if you need further assistance.

The free manual? Very nice if we read it.

Thanks for the reply, but that doesn't help me.

I need to individually turn the plots on or off. Not simply turn them all off. Yes, I am very familiar with the manual, koganam.

I would like to show a Price Marker on the actual chart not only on the Y-Axis.

It will be useful with Heiken Shi charts as they show more of a trend.

Can you clarify the below?

I could start with a new plot with Close[0] ?

Hello ij001,

Thank you for your post.

You would disable the price marker via PaintPriceMarkers: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...icemarkers.htm

Then use DrawText() at whatever level from the Close[0] or value of the indicator: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...7/drawtext.htm
