Horizontal Line manually added; Can it have a visible label?

[Hyper]

Hi. When a horizontal line is added to a Chart Manually, can it
be given a visible "label" attribute? e.g. "Sell Here" ; I didn't see
that possibility in properties, but maybe I missed it.

[edit] there is a Tag field; initially set to the same as the
internal "key" for the line; maybe that would be the label, if
it were changed? and could be shown visually? I don't think so....?

Hello Hyper,

Thanks for your post.

The standard drawing tools do not provide for labeling.

You can install a free and publicly available add-on that provided duplicate tools that include the ability to label the lines with your text and price or just price.

This add-on is publicly available on our NinjaTrader Ecosystem website:

• https://ninjatraderecosystem.com/use...-drawing-tool/

Here is a basic guideline of how to import NinjaScript add-ons in NinjaTrader 8:

Note — To import NinjaScripts you will need the original .zip file.

To Import:

1. Download the NinjaScripts to your desktop, keep them in the compressed .zip file.
2. From the Control Center window select the menu Tools > Import > NinjaScript Add-on...
3. Select the downloaded .zip file
4. NinjaTrader will then confirm if the import has been successful.

Critical - Specifically for some NinjaScripts, it will prompt that you are running newer versions of @SMA, @EMA, etc. and ask if you want to replace, press 'No'

Once installed, you will find the drawing tools under the pencil icon on the chart, in the drop down window they will showed Labeled ...
