Dataseries - plottings bar

[tonynt]

Hello,

because there is no marketprofile in NinjaTrader I had to make me an "indicator" with plotting the TPO letters and I want to plot me on the high and low numbers from calculations derived from marketprofile theory.

All works fine but I have one problem: In the indicator I have to use 2 dataseries, the 30 minute and a "inside" smaller lets say 2 Range as BarsInProgress==1 in the code.

When I have in the code the following logic (to explain my question accurately):

if(BarsInProgress==1)
{do my calculations and then Draw.Text(this, "diffHigh", true, str1, 0, Highs[0][0] + 13*TickSize, 0, Brushes. Black,new SimpleFont ("Arial",9), TextAlignment.Center, Brushes.Transparent,null,1);}

how can I have plotted the str1 on the High of BIP=0 and not on the High of BIP=1 please? (because the calculation runs in BIP=1 bracket and the barsago in the syntax of Draw.Text refers to BIP=1 from my understanding.)

Thank you!
Tony

Hello tonynt,

You are already doing that by using Highs[0][0] as the price. If you want the BarsAgo to refer to primary bars ago you would want to move that to BIP 0. If you moved the code to BIP 0 you would need to make a string variable and then set your string from BIP1 and draw from BIP 0.

I look forward to being of further assistance.

Hello,

thank you for your reply. Maybe I have translated incorrect or asked not accurately...

yes I do with Highs[0][0] but the question is if in the syntax "....str1, 0, Highs[0][0] +..." the 0 here is barsago from the Highs[0][0] used in this Draw.Text line or if the 0 here is referring to the BIP bracket where its calculated as I have

if (BIP==1) // 1= Range,2
{
calculate...;
Draw.Text("....str1, 0, Highs[0][0] +...."
}

if(BIP==0)
{then do other stuff}

Thank you!

Hello tonynt,

The 0 BarsAgo would be from where the object is drawn, can you clarify what you are trying to do?

Please let me know if I may be of further assistance.

Hello,

thank you for your reply. From this I understand that the 0 barsago is the same dataseries as the Highs[0][0] in that string. Then I have all I need because I want to plot the double (that is calculated in the bracket of BIP=1 with Range2 as shown in the minimalized code above) but is plotted above the high/below the low of the 30 min bar with is the BIP=0 and the Highs[0][0] in that string. So this will then work as we need.

Thank you!
Tony
