Plot indicator signals at several price levels on a bar

[Scotty33]

Is it possible to plot indicator signals on several price levels in a bar? The attached image shows an example of what I mean (see the blue and pink squares). I thought about AddPlot() but depending on the chart time frame, there could be a large number of price levels in the bar, so this would be inefficient.
Also, is it possible to plot signals to the left and right of the bar, as in the example, rather than centrally?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Hello Scotty33,

Thanks for your post.

Is exposing those signals a requirement? I.E. If we use a plot, the plot can be accessed from a strategy if the strategy adds that indicator.

If so the task would be more difficult, and you will want to consider a way to expose that information. I have attached an example that demonstrates how you can create a Series<List>. A Series will hold a variable/object for each bar in the data series. If we make that a List, then you can have multiple values saved in each bar. The example shows tracking each price level of each bar in the data series.

For exposing indicator values that are not plots, please see below.

If your means is to simply draw on the bars, I suggest using Drawing methods.

Drawing tools will place objects in the center of a bar. If you want to customize the drawings further, SharpDX custom rendering can be used. To get more acquainted with SharpDX rendering, please see the Help Guide article below, and please see the SampleCustomRender indicator that comes with NinjaTrader.

We look forward to assisting.

Thanks Jim, for your comprehensive answer. Despite the added complexity, exposing the indicator values is important, so I'll work through the example you included and study the SharpDX features so that I can plot the signals correctly.
