Is it possible to draw texts to the right of the last bar?

Is it possible to draw texts to the right of the last bar? The barAgo parameter in DrawText only accepts positive value, which results the texts are always drawn to the left of the last bar on the chart.

Not via any of our supported methods. You can by overriding the plot method and just drawing via .NET graphics. See the indicator CustomPlotSample.

When drawing via NET graphics, how can I specify the y position in price instead of pixels? That is, how can I draw a text at price = 1.60 but 10 bars to the right of the last bar on $EURUSD chart? It seems not possible, right?

Unfortunately this is not supported.

Please add the feature to allow text on the right side of the last bar (in the right margin area). This is a feature that I use constantly in Tradestation 8.x.

Thanks for your suggestion. We'll add it to the list of future considerations.

Here is an example. Perhaps it will help motivate you .

This is actually from MultiCharts but it looks the same in TradeStation (same code).

You might want to try writing at bar index 0 and padding the text with leading blanks, so that it appears to the right of bar 0.
