Put marker at future time

[ct]

What is the best way to put a marker at a future time?

Example: I want to draw or place something on the chart at at specific time in the future or x seconds into the future?

I am thinking just set a time value and when that time is reached do something at that bar [0] like backcolor.

Just wanted to be sure there is nothing easier.

Thanks.

Hello CT,

All the drawing objects have a method signature that supports drawing at a Date/Time point. Here's the method signature for DrawArrowDown()

DrawArrowDown(string tag, bool autoScale, DateTime time, double y, Color color)


If you wanted to draw 15 minutes in the future, you could use something like:

DrawArrowDown("uniqueTag", true, Time[0].AddMinutes(15), High[0], Color.Red);
