Draw Fib using a saved temple

[ct]

Scenario: Draw a fib retracement on a chart using an indicator

Question: Can I draw the fib using/applying a particular saved fib template?

I know I can using a path and a copied template to the name "Default" or a dictionary function. But that isn't supported.
I didn't know if there was a supported alternative.

Hello ct,

Thanks for your post.

Yes, an indicator can draw a Fibonacci Retracement using a preexisting template.

There are two method overloads where you can specify the name of the template:
Draw.FibonacciRetracements(NinjaScriptBase owner, string tag, bool isAutoScale, DateTime startTime, double startY, DateTime endTime, double endY, bool isGlobal, string templateName)
Draw.FibonacciRetracements(NinjaScriptBase owner, string tag, bool isAutoScale, int startBarsAgo, do uble startY, int endBarsAgo, double endY, bool isG lobal, string templateName)

Reference: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...tracements.htm

If the template name is misspelled, or does not have the correct syntax, or is not provided, the default template will be used.

Note: Templates are similarly supported in all Draw methods.

Hello ct,

I just realized you posted in the NinjaTrader7 forum and my reply was based on NinjaTrader8.

As you can see it is easily done in NinjaTrader8 but it is not supported in NinjaTrader7 and there is no supported alternative.

I apologize for my oversight.
