DrawRegion between to Doubles

[GKonheiser]

Hi there,

How can I draw a region between two Doubles? Im am trying to do this:

DrawRegion("hPiv" + sessionCount,Bars.BarsSinceSession,0,hPiv, hPiv-2*TickSize,Color.Red,Color.Red,4);

Where hPiv is a Double.

But of course it wont work because I need to pass a IDataSeries not a double.

How can I get around this?

thanks

That's correct GKonheiser, you would need to have at least one series for the DrawRegion call.

One workaround would be storing the hPiv value into a custom dataseries value first in your OnBarUpdate() and then using this series as 'anchor'.

Thanks for that. Bertrand if I want the line to start from the bar when the condition becomes try and not from the start of the session what should I use as a start instead of Bars.BarsSinceSession?

Just save the barnumber then when you're condition triggered, so that you have a reference to know how many bars ago it occurred - which you could then in turn in your DrawRegion call.
