DrawHorizontalLine+CurrentBar(0)

[duck_CA]

trying to make an indicator that will draw a horizontal line at the current price.

the attached indicator works but does not allow me to choose any colors for the line...currently it's set for "Yellow" directly in the code.

i am looking for the option to choose any color when opening the indicator window

enum

I think you will have to add code for a enum. I think there is an example of that in the code examples.

Here is a link to the page

Hi duck_CA, you can check this link to add a user defined color input to the indicator - http://www.ninjatrader-support2.com/...ead.php?t=4977

DrawHorizontalLine("Current_price",Close[0],LineColor,DashStyle.Dot,1);

Thank Josh for the link...

I'm trying to create a name...which is currently "LineColor".

I noticed that you used "BorderColor" and "FillColor" for drawing the Rectangle in your SampleColorInput Indicator.

Is there a certain name that is needed for my case?

You need to use lower case L for your variable in the Variables section to match your variable in the Properties section.

Current PriceLine Indicator with Color Options

Thanks Josh,

Here is a cool indicator that draws a horizontal line at the current market price level. This can help to see where S/R levels are in comparsion to current price.

The really cool feature is the ability to change the line color to any color desired via the indicator window.

Attached is the Indicator and a vid showing how to change colors.
