drawLine function

[AutoTraderOne]

hi,

i want to draw a line on the chart panel. i use the DrawLine() function. but, this function needs y axis co-ordinate. That means i need to convert the price to a y axis co-ordinate value.

Do you have function that can just take the price value and draw a line on the chart?

Plot function is not an option because i need to delete the line later and plot object can not be deleted.

Hi AutoTraderOne,

What is the context that you will be placing the DrawLine on the chart panel?

What I mean is what kind of value are you wanting to pass through the DrawLine()?

I believe for the standard supported draw objects the y-axis value is input as price. For example, if you want the line to draw at the level of the last bar's closing price your y value would be Close[1].

thank you for helping. It is my mistake. DrawLine did take price value as input.

Hello dv1234567,

Thanks for your post and welcome to the forums!

The help guide provides an example of DrawLine: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...l?drawline.htm

If you are trying to draw a line in an indicator panel, then you will also want to make sure that you set DrawOnPricePanel = false; as the default is true. Please see: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...pricepanel.htm

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

Please Help

I am trying to get the DrawLine() to draw lines on the price chart and on the indicator panel at the same time, whenever i mess with DrawOnPricePanel = false, all the lines everywhere dissappear, any ideas, thanks

Hello,

This would not be possible from a single indicator.

DrawOnPricePanel toggles if the indicator will draw on the price panel or on the panel the indicator is currently in.

In order to draw on multiple panels, there is the option of two indicators, one set to the price panel and the second set to its own panel.

I look forward to being of further assistance.
