DrawOnPricePanel

[phoenix]

Working on what should be a simple add-on, but the output is not working as programmed. If you look at the photo, you will see the 'CrossAbove' is plotting on the indicator panel (as programmed), but the 'CrossBelow' will only post in the price panel (it is also suppose to be in the indicator panel). I have changed the syntax order...putting 'CrossBelow' on top (and on bottom); did a cut-and-paste, deleted the cut-and-paste, typed it in fresh, added it to different charts, but the 'CrossBelow' will not print on the indicator panel. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!!!!

if (CrossAbove(K, 35, 1))
{ DrawVerticalLine("CrossUp", 0, Color.Blue, DashStyle.DashDotDot,5);
DrawOnPricePanel = false;
}

if (CrossBelow(K, 65, 1))
{ DrawVerticalLine("CrossDown", 0, Color.Black, DashStyle.DashDotDot,5);
DrawOnPricePanel = false;
}

Hi phoenix,

In most cases DrawOnPricePanel = false; should be put in the Initialize(), unless you have a specific reason not to.

Otherwise, put it before your Draw statement....

if (CrossBelow(K, 65, 1))
{
DrawOnPricePanel = false;
DrawVerticalLine("CrossDown", 0, Color.Black, DashStyle.DashDotDot,5);
}

phoenix,

Let us know if that works because I didn't think you could do that...and I thought I tested it at some point. Anyway, if you can that would be great to know!

Hey NT Tim,

Thanks!!! That worked. I had formatted a couple of indicators with the 'DrawUp(Down)Arrow' function in it, to draw those on the indicator panel, I had to include the "DrawOnPricePanel = false;" as written below, and simply did the same with this.

The only programming class I had was in college in 1984, and that was in Fortran. ;-)

So, I am learning by trial and error here.

Thanks for your help.

Hi phoenix,

Great! Glad to hear you've got it up and running!

Aww, Fortran, now that's old school!
