Am going to try this one out,

Thanks,

Johan

privatedouble LastHH;
privatedouble LastLL;
Ok, like you see those already done, now where do I have to set these?

if this bar is HH then: LastHH = High[0];
if this bar is LL then: LastLL = Low[0];


Thanks again,

Johan (see below what I tried but not worked)

ifthis bar is HH then: LastHH = High[0];
ifthis bar is LH then:

DrawDot("LH" + CurrentBar, false, 0, LastHH, Color.Red);


else
ifthis bar is LL then: LastLL = Low[0];
ifthis bar is HL then:

DrawDot("HL" + CurrentBar, false, 0, LastLL, Color.Red);

jojotrader,

That is not C# code. That was just code in English. You would need to use proper C# code to make it work.

I just forgot to highlight that, thanks Josh.

Johan, I expressed the if-conditions as text phrases because I don't know how these conditions are defined in your code. So, I wanted to describe under which conditions the 2 variables LastHH and LastLL are to be set and under which conditions DrawDot() is to be called. Only DrawDot() is a line of real code.

If you please you maybe want to take a look at that NinjaPriceAction file...

If not, ok, I know I asking things that takes a bit of time....

Johan.


Anyway, thanks again for the help.

Hi Johan,

here is my proposal (untested) just for HH. Have a look if that makes sense.

Ralph

[COLOR=red]private double LastHH;[/COLOR]
 
if (curhigh < prevhigh + offset && curhigh > prevhigh - offset)
{
  DrawText("DT"+CurrentBar,"DT",barsback, High[barsback] + toffset, Color.Gold);
}
else if (curhigh > prevhigh)
{
  [COLOR=red]LastHH = High[barsback];[/COLOR]
  DrawText("HH"+CurrentBar,"HH",barsback, High[barsback] + toffset, Color.Green);
}
else
{
  [COLOR=red]DrawDot("LH" + CurrentBar, false, barsBack, LastHH , Color.Red);[/COLOR]
  DrawText("LH"+CurrentBar,"LH",barsback, High[barsback] + toffset, Color.Red);
}

[jojotrader]

Almost, error is Statement expected at red lights....

barsback = Swing(strength).SwingHighBar(0,1,lookback);
if (barsback == -1) return;
curhigh = Swing(strength).SwingHigh[barsback];

curATR = ATR(14)[barsback];
offset = curATR * dtbstrength / 100;
toffset = curATR * textoffset / 100;(here)


privatedouble LastHH;

if (curhigh < prevhigh + offset && curhigh > prevhigh - offset)
DrawText("DT"+CurrentBar,"DT",barsback, High[barsback] + toffset, Color.Gold);
elseif (curhigh > prevhigh)
LastHH = High[barsback];
DrawText("HH"+CurrentBar,"HH",barsback, High[barsback] + toffset, Color.Green);(and here)
else
DrawDot("LH" + CurrentBar, false, barsBack, LastHH , Color.Red);
DrawText("LH"+CurrentBar,"LH",barsback, High[barsback] + toffset, Color.Red);


Thanks a lot for the help...

jojotrader,

Please provide the errors.

[Ralph]

Concerning the second red mark: If an if-statement contains more than 1 statement you need to put them into braces {}. Refer to my code example.

Regards
Ralph

[jojotrader]

Looks like it going to work....
Only need variable DOT or bigger one...

Any ideas?


Thanks a lot again for the help.

Hi Johan, not sure what you refer to - please post your code in question so we can have a look. Thanks!

[Ralph]

I was waiting for this question already Johan. You have two choices (at least):

1) Extend the Plot() method which enables you to apply all graphical functions C# provides for you. But that needs programming experiences.

2) Go back to the DrawText approach and use Font() with a symbol font like Windings. We had this discussion already please read the following link: http://www.ninjatrader-support2.com/...21&postcount=4

DrawText Writing Over Previous Text

Folks,
I have added DrawText statements to display the Price of Swing Points. The problem is that occasionally the Price apprears to write over a previous price (see picture). I have tried formatting "ToString(), RemoveDrawingObject, and countless other measures. The DrawText Tags are unique and compiles without errors.

Any guidance is greatly appreciated.

Here is the portion of code that I added to the original:


SwHiRng = curhigh;
SwLoRng = curlow;



if (curlow > prevlow - offset && curlow < prevlow + offset)
{
DrawText("DB"+CurrentBar,"DB",barsback, Low[barsback] - toffset, Color.Blue);
DrawText("SDB"+CurrentBar,SwLoRng.ToString("0.00"),barsback, Low[barsback] - (toffset-3*TickSize), Color.Blue);
}
else
if (curlow < prevlow)
{
DrawText("LL"+CurrentBar,"LL",barsback, Low[barsback] - toffset, Color.Red);
DrawText("SLL"+CurrentBar,SwLoRng.ToString("0.00"),barsback, Low[barsback] - (toffset-3*TickSize), Color.Red);
}
else
{
DrawText("HL"+CurrentBar,"HL",barsback, Low[barsback] - toffset, Color.Green);
DrawText("SHL"+CurrentBar,SwLoRng.ToString("0.00"),barsback, Low[barsback] - (toffset-3*TickSize), Color.Green);
}


}

Sorry, Picture didn't attach.

Nomar,

Very likely your barsBack parameter incremented to add it onto the same bar.
