Hello aekzof,

Thanks for your post.

The Draw.Line() method could be used to draw a line from a certain number of barsAgo to the current bar on the chart. The angle of the line drawn would be dependent on the values being passed in for the 'double startY' and 'double endY' arguments when calling the Draw.Line() method.

The 'double startY' argument would be the value that the line starts drawing at. The 'double endY' argument would be the value that the line drawing ends. The 'int startBarsAgo' argument would determine how many barsAgo the line starts drawing.

Draw.Line(NinjaScriptBase owner, string tag, int startBarsAgo, double startY, int endBarsAgo, double endY, Brush brush)

For example, if you set 'startBarsAgo' to 10, the line would start being drawn 10 bars back from the currently forming bar. If you set 'startY' to 1000 and 'endY' to 1005, the line would be drawn at an angle from 1000 to 1005.

If you want the angle to be adjustable, you could consider using user-defined inputs for the 'startY' and 'endY' arguments.

See the help guide documentation below for more information about the Draw.Line() method and sample code.

See this help guide documentation for information about creating user-defined input parameters: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...d_input_pa.htm

You could also set up user-defined inputs in the Inputs section of the Inputs and Variables screen of the Strategy Builder. Then, you could click the 'View code' button to see the generated syntax.

Hello aekzof,

Thanks for your note.

I am unable to determine which indicator you are referring to in the screenshot you shared. Please answer the following questions so I may accurately assist.

Is this an indicator or a drawing tool?

What is the name of the indicator or drawing tool you are referring to?

I look forward to your reply.

this is a drawing tool not an indicator it was developed i think by your colleague
but I wonder is it possible to make an indicator like this tools?
and looking at it I imagined lines with angles
Best regards

Hello aekzof,

Thanks for your note.

The Gann Fan drawing tool is the only drawing tool that comes default with NinjaTrader that draws an angle on the chart.

To draw a Gann Fan from a NinjaScript, you could use the Draw.GannFan() method.

See the help guide documentation below for more information and sample code.
