Indicator: Changing fonts for draw objects

[NinjaTrader_JoshP]

Drawing text on a chart can be useful for outputting information, but when all information is displayed with the same font and size it could be difficult to quickly see the key information. Since NinjaScript is based on C#, it is possible to use Font objects to create more styles for your text.

Key concepts in this example:

• Drawing text on a chart
• Changing the font size on a chart
