DrawText Slope

Not sure what you mean. I'm happy to help with specific questions but unfortunately won't be able to debug the logic for you.

Nice,

Just tried something simple with the Sample DataSeries Indicator:

protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{

myDataSeries.Set(Math.Abs(Close[0] - Close[1]));

int i;

for (i = 0; i < 256; ++i)
{

if ((Close[0] - Close[1]) == myDataSeries[i])
{
DrawExtendedLine("Slope" + Time, false, 1, Close[1], 0, Close[0], Color.Green, DashStyle.Dash, 2);

}
}

Shouldn't that do something or am I missing a concept as nothing appears and I'm using SVLC Weekly Data which contains 2 sets of parallell slopes.

Close[0] - Close [1] = .11
Close[1] - Close [2] = .11

Close[7] - Close [8] = .08
Close[12] - Close [13] = .08

You should see an error in your log about bounds. If you look at your code, you will see that your for loop is trying to access myDataSeries[255], which will only exist if you have at least 256 entries in your myDataseries. Therefore, you either have to modify the for loop to account for less or you have to avoid processing the loop until you have enough bars.

1. Account for fewer bars:

 
if (CurrentBar < 1) return; //at top of OBU to account for trying to access bars one bar back on the next statement.
...
for (i = 0; i < Math.Min(CurrentBar, 256); ++i) ... //will use the CurrentBar value until there are 256 bars, then use 256.

2. Avoid processing the loop until you have enough bars:

 
if (CurrentBar < 256) return; //at top of OBU
