DrawRegion Problems

[tshirtdeal]

Hi,

I am trying to add a color fill for overbought/oversold areas of an indicator (i.e > 80 color fill the area)

I have read everything and tried everything but it will not work, the indicator compiles without error, but nothing shows up...

I am trying to just add this line of code into the indicator script:

if (DoubleStochastics(10)[0] > 90)
{
DrawRegion("Upper" + CurrentBar, 1, 0, DoubleStochastics(10), Color.Black, Color.Gold, 5);

any help is greatly appreciated...

Thanks,
R.T.

Hello RT,
Thanks for writing in and I am happy to assist you.

If you the custom indicator plots on a different panel (i.e. Overlay = false), then please do make sure you have set DrawOnPricePanel to false in the Initialize section of the code.

I can assist you further if you post the indicator here or send it to support[AT]ninjatrader[DOT]com. Please do append Attn:Joydeep in the subject line and refer this thread in the body of the email.

Please let me know if I can assist you any further.

Thanks,

I only have one plot on the indicator, the overbought and oversold are Lines, do you need 2 plots for DrawRegion?

Hello RT,
To draw a region you need atleast one data series. Please refer to the various overloads which a DrawRegion accepts http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...drawregion.htm

If you have no data series then please draw a rectangle instead using the DrawRectangle method http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...wrectangle.htm

Please let me know if I can assist you any further.
