Draw to 2 panels from one code, is it possible?

[handlar]

Hi all,

I'm developing my cluster indicator and I want to draw two areas: bid-ask indicator and delta indicator in different panels. Now I draw them in the main panel like this (see attachment #1)
In this case, main chart сrawls on these two indicators.

I don't want to create 3 indicators: cluster chart, bid-ask for each bar, delta for each bar. I want to leave all code as is, in one indicator, but draw in different panels.

Could you help me solve this issue? Maybe there is a code example of how to draw plots in different panels from one indicator?

Hello handlar,

Thank you for the post.

It is not currently possible to generate multiple panels for a single indicator, the indicator follows a single panel.

What you are asking for is possible but an additional strategy would be needed so that it can add 3 variations of your indicator passing different parameters for each. The indicator would use IsOverlay = false and then it can generate new panels for each instance.

An alternative approach would be to use the OnCalculateMinMax override to adjust the chart scale to give yourself space at the bottom. You could then use OnRender to draw lines/backgrounds to make "panels" to differentiate the data.

I look forward to being of further assistance.

Jesse, thank you for the information about OnCalculateMinMax, that's enough for my task!
