Hello,

You would just draw text on the price value that you use for constant line:

Price would be the y value in the link above. Give it a try and post your questions and code.

it seems that the text does not print when i change the "bars ago" from 0 to 10

protectedoverridevoid OnBarUpdate()
{
if (Line1Value != 0) Line1.Set(Line1Value);
if (Line2Value != 0) Line2.Set(Line2Value);
if (Line3Value != 0) Line3.Set(Line3Value);
if (Line4Value != 0) Line4.Set(Line4Value);

DrawText("MyText", "Sample text", 10, 1106, Color.Blue);
}

Is your current bar check at the OnBarUpdate start high enough to allow for this without errors being thrown to the log tab?

Does anyone know where I can get such an indi? I like the constant lines indi because I can choose what plot style I want.e.g. dot,cross,triangle, etc.
Would be great to be able to label the lines, anyone able to do this, please.
Thanks in advance

Would unfortunately not be be familiar with a resource providing this already as custom addon study, we have labeling as option though in our feedback tracking in product management and I've added a vote in here on your behalf.

need help add text to constant lines indi

Hi, will someone help me out with adding text to the default "constant lines" indicator.
I was able to make it plot text but I do not know how to tell it what line the text needs to be displayed on. e.g. text for line1, 2, etc. and have that show up in the settings so I can type what text I want when adding the indi to chart.
Not even sure if the way I got it to add the text is the proper way of doing it. If someone would kindly take a look and give me some direction would appreciate it.
I attached a pic of the line of code I put in here to make it add the text. Also the original constantlines.cs, and the test .cs i am working on.
Thanks in advance for any help

You could have a look at this indicator, it has user defined lines with alerts.
