    Get Bars Data in DrawingTools

    I created my own Rectangle Drawing Tool. Now I want to have the Rectangle snap to the highest High and Lowest Low of the bars selected in the Rectangle. Should be easy using StartAnchor.SlotIndex and EndAnchor.SlotIndex to create a loop. The set StartAnchor/EndAnchor.Price. To do that I need access to the High[index] and Low[index]. Is there a Using declaration I can add? Or something else? I am open to suggestions.

    This does not work:
    bars.Bars.GetHigh[index}
    Bars.GetHigh[index]

    Thanks.

    Hello TAJTrades,

    What bar object are you using?

    Are you using GetAttachedToChartBars().Bars to get the bars object?


    Do you have a test script with only the code necessary to demonstrate that the bars.GetHigh() does not work correctly?

    If so, may I have an export of the reduced test script to test on my end?

    To export a NinjaTrader 8 NinjaScript do the following:
    1. Click Tools -> Export -> NinjaScript...
    2. Click the 'add' link -> check the box(es) for the script(s) you want to include
    3. Click the 'Export' button
    4. Enter a unique name for the file in the value for 'File name:'
    5. Choose a save location -> click Save
    6. Click OK to clear the export location message

    By default your exported file will be in the following location:
    • (My) Documents/NinjaTrader 8/bin/Custom/ExportNinjaScript/<export_file_name.zip>


    Below is a link to the help guide on Exporting NinjaScripts.

      Thanks.

      (As a tip, this is being used successfully in the RegressionChannel drawing tool) is all I needed. Will use that as an example. I was trying something different.
