Free Hand Drawing Capability

[rwbil]

Is there an option to do free hand drawing on my charts. I see the drawing tools lines and arrows and etc., but do not see a free hand drawing tool. This is something I would find very helpful.

Hello rwbil,

Unfortunately such a tool is not supported in NinjaTrader. I will forward the suggestion to support a free hand tool to development.

suggestion for NT website---voting on improvements to platform

Hello Alfonz,

Unfortunately this is not supported in NinjaTrader 8. I will forward your vote to support it.

Please add my name to the (undoubtedly long) list of traders who would love to see freehand drawing in NT8. Can't believe that wasn't sufficiently a priority. It can't be too hard to code, can it?

It would be really handy to have somewhere on NT's website a list of customer's recommendations/suggestions and perhaps a way to show how many "upvotes" each suggestion gets. I've made several good suggestions over the years (well, at least I thought they were good) and they've all been dutifully given project numbers and then been completely ignored. No doubt this suggestion will be ignored as well, but I still think it would be useful for customers to view and vote on suggestions that fellow traders make. Anybody else like this idea?

Any progress on development for a free hand drawing tool? Looks like this request has been out for years now. What is the voting total count at the moment?

Given the elapsed time for this request, you may find it more productive to do an Internet search along the lines of "free window annotation software". There appear to be many options. Probably best to go with an open source tool if you can find one that suits your needs.

Thanks.
