Text in line with price

[ScottieDog]

Hi,

I have some data which currently plots to the bottom right of the panel 1 (same as input series), in fact, in the indicator parameters it is possible to chose from a drop down menu where the text will be placed... top right, top left, bottom right, bottom left and even "center".

I actually want the text to be displayed to the right of current price. How can I add that to the choices for where the text displays?

Thanks.

ScottieDog, this could unfortunately not be done with the DrawTextFixed you're using here, however with the regular DrawText you can place text exactly at the desired bar / price value, so my suggestion would be looking to change over to user that in your script.

Thanks.

I´d like to have a go at this myself, is it difficult to do for a new coder?

Could you talk me through it?

Sure, if you're not familiar with those aspects of our NinjaScript then this would be for example a good start - http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/f...ead.php?t=3419 This should cover the basics and help you get going modifying your code. With the DrawTextFixed you just have one object basically which you modify, with the more general DrawText you can create as many as you want (provided a new tag id is supplied) and you can designate what to plot, at which bar and which price level.
