seems to be nice Work MaX, however using DrawRegion has some disadvantages , one of them is that u cannot extend the zone to the right side , but using my idea you can , see the picture attached , I think the folks at NT should do something to allow drawing zones, rectangles ..etc and using the marker in In the Initialize() method .
BTW thanks NinjaTrader_Josh for your code.

Hi,
well - the right zone is not so important for me - so the indicator works for me. But just for the first view . i find no way to use it in currencie future where the values are like 1.4123 in the 6E - EU-future for example ... hm - the indicator does not accept comma-numbers.
Any solution / ideas to this ?

Bobmike - if you can explain your trick a bit more or better post the line-loop-thing directly - would be fine !

Anyone knows how to handel that decimal value problem in the indicators varaiables ? I found no ideas searching in the forum.

Not sure what you are referring to. Try changing all your variable ints to doubles.

HI...Mybe this one help

Hi Friend...
This is Yusuf. I have attached a Script File where I tried to use DrawRegion with two inputs, The Upper Bound and The Lower Bound. While I was looking for something like BANDS instead of lines for S/R, I made this indicator (somewhat similar to ConstantLines adn complete idea taken from ConstantLines indicator available in the Indicator section). I hope it helps you to understand how DrawRegion can be used.

I am also new to NT and in the process of learning the codes and the way it is used in script by going through various indicators already present in NT. So I felt, I must post this if it helps you in any way.

Thanks Buddy,
Best regards,
Yusuf SHAIKH

Good idea - i also thoght about hijacking the ConstantLines for that thing ;-)
tweaking playing asking sharing - the best way to learn the stuff ...
