Plotting Arrows via Strategy Analyzer

[marcusplexus]

Hi,

Using Strategy Analyzer I am unable to print "up arrows" on the [Chart] tab. The goal is to help me quickly identify some market situations, not simulate entries and stops results. Is this achievable?

Conditions and Alerts, Set1, "When the following are true":
Line1: Low[2] > Low[1]
Line2: Low[1] > Low[0]
Do the following:
DrawArrowUP("My up arrow" + CurrentBar, false, 0,0, Color.Lime)

When I use "Order Management" actions instead of "DrawArrowUp" stuff does print on the Chart.

Thanks for your help.

MarcusPlexus, you can try adding Print() statements to your "Do the following" sections to make sure the code blocks are being executed. The Print() command can be found under the Misc section as "Print to output window".

Actually, try specifying a value other than 0 for the y location of the arrow, like Low[0] or something like that. I just noticed this after I posted my first reply. The arrow is being drawn, you just can't see it because it is at a price of 0 on the chart.

That was it! Many thanks!
