DrawDot to the right of price

[tinkerz]

I would like to draw a colored dot to the right of the price, 4 dots to be precise by price level, then delete them every new bar, DrawDot wont extend to the right but is there another way or has someone any sample code?

Thanks

Plot dots

This is a way to do it:

DrawLine("YourLine", false, -4, Close[0], -1, Close[0], Color.Blue, DashStyle.Dot, 8);

if you are going to have a condition for this:

if(your condition)
{
DrawLine("YourLine", false, -4, Close[0], -1, Close[0], Color.Blue, DashStyle.Dot, 8);
}

I guess also another way to solve it is to just plot using Dot, -1, -2,and minus 3.
Not shure if this is the correct way, but it works. If this is completely wrong, i guess some of the mods here will corect me:

IDot dot1 = DrawDot("Dot1", true, -1, Close[0], Color.Red);
IDot dot2 = DrawDot("Dot2", true, -2, Close[0], Color.Red);
IDot dot3 = DrawDot("Dot3", true, -3, Close[0], Color.Red);

Hope this is what you are looking for.

looks great, how do then deleted them every new bar?

You don't need add anything extra for that. They will move automaticly to the new bar.

I tried

DrawDot("Dot1", true, -1, Close[0], Color.Red);

On 6.5, maybe on NT7 it works, but it does not like the negative number on 6.5

I dont know what IDot is? is it a NT7 feature, it is not on 6.5

IDot dot1 = DrawDot("Dot1", true, -1, Close[0], Color.Red);

tinkerz, correct the IDraw objects have been added to NT7. For NT 6.5 you unfortunately can't draw programmatically into the future, for NT 7 you could do so by supplying a future DateTime as parameter.
