Plotting DataSeries

[gg80108]

Have a DataSeries that contains bar numbers and want to plot a line between Highs and Lows of consecutive bars,, any suggestions?

Hi gg80108, you can use the DrawLine methods for connecting your highs / lows - http://www.ninjatrader-support.com/H.../DrawLine.html

Plotting Lines to conect Highs & Lows

Yea, I'm interested in the same. Apparently, Low and Lows do NOT have a Plot method? We can plot EMA on close,open,high, low. But how can we create a series of lows and highs and plot then and base decision rules off of them? Not just drawing lines to connect them. Any suggestions are much welcomed.

Hello,

I am jumping in here so I may be off, but I suggest storing them in a DataSeries:

here is the code i used to connect significant bar points, like Ben said the key to this is storing the bar numbers somewhere. The trick is that with a data series there is an entry in the array for every bar , a null or value, and not just the values you set in.
I had to use a


//find last pivot bar
for (int x = 1; x < Bars.BarsSinceSession;x++)
{
if (scalpSeries.ContainsValue(x))
{
PivotBarNum = (int)scalpSeries[x];
DrawLine("sl" + CurrentBar,CurrentBar - PivotBarNum,Low[CurrentBar - PivotBarNum],ExtremeBar,High[ExtremeBar],Color.Blue,DashStyle.Solid,1);
