Rectangle NOT Plotting

[ginx10k]

Hey guys, question. any idea why this Rectangle is NOT plotting? I placed it on Panel 1, and tried it on it's own Panel. just stays blank.

I want rectangle to Plot at every new bar. in a Renko bar chart!

Hello,

It looks like the values you are using would not be valid,

Looking at the line of code:

DrawRectangle("Test", false, 1, 0, 0, 1, Color.Blue, Color.Black, 3);

This is currently set to draw 1 bar ago at value between 1 and 0, was this intended?

If so you would need to turn on the autoscale by changing the false to true and then chart will scale to show this.

Otherwise you would need to put in a price value for the two y values it asks for and you should see it drawn.

I look forward to being of further assistance.

Thanks, it did draw something. but It drew Rectangles in Main Data Series.

This is what I get: http://screencast.com/t/NRAQoh3M0e


THis is my goal. to draw it like this: http://screencast.com/t/lFJRiZJ4A


Also how do I change the color of it depending if lets say Close[0] > EMA(10)....etc

Hello,

Based on the image, there is an easier approach using the BackColor property.

There is a example that actually looks almost identical to what you are after here: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...tsub=BackColor

The BackColor property would in turn be much more efficient than drawing a rectangle for every bar.
If you did want to instead use a rectangle, you need to use the DrawOnPricePanel property http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...awonpricepanel

For the color change, please see the first link there is a good example on how the color is changed based on a condition.

I look forward to being of further assistance.

that BackColor is literally Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks so much!
