Drawing text labels to right of current bar in NT8

[REI140205]

Is there a simple way to draw text labels to the right of the current bar? My indicator currently draws labels using barsAgo. I have not found guidance or a sample code snippet to help me revise the code to draw to the right of currentbar. Much appreciated in advance.

Try -barsago.

Hello REI140205,

Thanks for your post and welcome to the Ninjatrader forums!

As member eDanny advised, using a negative value for bars ago will allow the text to be placed to the right of the bar. For example:

Draw.Text(this, "tag1", "Text to draw", -2, 1000, Brushes.Black); will draw the text "Text to draw" 2 bars in advance of the current bar at a level of 1000.
