Indicator draw placement

[orenshkol]

Hi,
I wish to create an indicator that draws a left triangle to the left of the current price bar and right triangle to the right of the current price bar, how do I do that?

Thank you.

Hello orenshkol,

Thanks for your post.

In your indicator you can add two plots and set the plot style to PlotStyle.TriangleLeft and PlotStyle.TriangleRight.

Plots would normally show on every bar so to remove the triangles from the previous bar, you can use PlotBrushes for the previous bar set to Brushes.Transparent.

Alternatively you can use the Draw.Triangle() method. Reference: https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...w_triangle.htm

Thank you for your quick reply, I'm not sure you understand what I want.

I want to create an indicator that looks something like the attached image. as you can see there're two plots in the indicator, one is a right triangle to the right of the bar, the other is a left triangle on the left of the same bar. How do I do that.

Hello orenshkol,

Thanks for your reply.

In my initial reply, I provided links to the method involved in the plots. I've attached an example that seems close to your example.
