DrawText - Y intercept

[SigLogic]

Greetings,

Would anyone be familiar with how to either
(a) DrawText at the low chart y component

I would use DrawFixed with TextPositionBottom, but I need several lines of text stacked on top of each other.

I can seem to find a way to reference the y intercept on the chart.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Easiest method would be to use "\n", making new lines where you want.

Hello all,

I am newbie on this forum, but I am getting the hang of it pretty quickly.
How to find y intercepts is given two points?FULL POINTS for best answer ! (: please helppp?
My two points are
(-2,1) and (5,6)

that means the slope.
m = 5 / 7

now I need to know how to find the y-intercept aka b.
(y=mx+b)

thankssssss in advance(: x

Hello,


Thank you for your note.


Two points of what? You could also use price and number of bars to do this as well. You dont need exact coordinates. Simply use the calcs for number of bars (CurrentBar) for the X and the price for the Y. This will get you your coordinates of anything drawn to the chart in relations do plots and chart data.

Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Use one of the known pairs to find "b".

b = y - mx
b = 6 - (5 * 5/7)
