    DrawDot help

    hi,
    i created this to draw a dot a certain distance above & below the current bar, but i am unable to change the dot size, color, etc from the chart indicator parameters where the options exist...but don't work. i think i'm missing something pretty basic here & any help would be appreciated. thanks.

    protectedoverridevoid Initialize()
    {
    Add(
    new Plot(Color.FromKnownColor(KnownColor.Gainsboro), PlotStyle.Dot, "Plot0"));
    Add(
    new Plot(Color.FromKnownColor(KnownColor.Gainsboro), PlotStyle.Dot, "Plot1"));
    CalculateOnBarClose =
    true;
    Overlay =
    true;
    PriceTypeSupported =
    false;

    protectedoverridevoid OnBarUpdate()
    {
    // Use this method for calculating your indicator values. Assign a value to each
    // plot below by replacing 'Close[0]' with your own formula.
    DrawDot("Plot0", true, 0, High[0] + 1, Color.WhiteSmoke);
    DrawDot(
    "Plot1", true, 0, Low[0] - 1, Color.WhiteSmoke);
    }

    Hi upsndowns,

    You will need to create a variable to select custom colors from the UI.
    Please see this reference sample - http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/f...ead.php?t=4977

    The size of the dot, unfortunately cannot be changed.
    However as, a workaround you can use DrawText() with a large font size, and a special character.
