    Adding UpDwnArrow to Indicator

    I'm looking for code to add to an indicator (ie., SMA) that shows an UpArrow & DnArrow when price closes above or below the line.

    I'd like be able to size & change color of Arrows too.

    Can some help with the code to achieve this and where I would add it the existing code?

    Brand new to NT and Script language.

    Help is MUCH APPRECIATED!

    I'd like the arrows to show on the SMA line not the chart itself.

    Thanks

      Hello,
      Thanks for posting today.

      NinjaScript has some built in methods to be able to add drawing objects to charts using an indicator.

      Here is a link to a sample indicator that uses several drawing methods.
      http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/f...ead.php?t=3419

      Also here is a link to our help guide showing both the DrawArrowUp() and DrawArrowDown() methods.
      DrawArrowUp():http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...rawarrowup.htm
      DrawArrowDown():http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...warrowdown.htm

      The color of the arrows can be set but NinjaScript does not support changing the size of these drawing obects.

      If you want the Drawing objects to show up on your DrawOnPricePanel property to false. The "DrawOnPricePanel" property is set to true as default which means that custom graphics will always be painted on the price panel even if the indicator is plotted in a separate panel. If you want your custom graphics to be plotted on the indicator panel, set this property to false in the Initialize() method of your custom indicator.

      Here is a link explaining drawing on your indicators or price panel.
