Label Lines, Rays

[tonynt]

Hello,

there is an indicator in NT-userappshare that labels horizontal lines. Couldn´t find an indicator that labels lines (horizontal with Draw.Line starty=endy) or horizontal rays?


Thank you!
Tony

Hello tonynt,

Thanks for your question.

I have a DrawingTool that expands the built in Lines DrawingTool to add a label. If you want to use them with NinjaScript, you can use DrawLL.LabeledRay() in place of Draw.Ray().

Hello,

thank you for your reply. In the meantime I have made a solution with Draw.Text because I know the y-value and I have only a few lines....

But what I see now when plotting the y-value that there is eg a yvalue1 with 3962,875 in ES as result from "yvalue1 = Instrument.MasterInstrument.RoundDownToTickSize(hi ghtz1+lowtz1)/2;"

Shouldn´t it be xxxx,00 or 0,25 or 0,50 or 0,75 from this syntax? This is what I thought to get form "Round...TickSize"
What do I have to change to have xxxx,00 or 0,25 or 0,50 or 0,75 as result?

Thank you!
Tony

Hello tonynt,

You are adding "lowtz1" and "hightz1" and rounding that to tick size. Then you are dividing that result by 2. The new result is no longer rounded because you divided what was rounded it by 2.

Did you mean to use parenthesis and divide hightz1 + lowtz1 by 2 before rounding the result?

We look forward to assisting.

Hello,

I mean to get from the high of day and the low of day calculating the "midprice" of day. And the mid should be a "valid" price, therefore roundedtoticksize.

Is this correct? -->
yvalue1 = Instrument.MasterInstrument.RoundDownToTickSize((h ightz1+lowtz1)/2);

Have no "strange" results today, so I can not see by testing.

Thank you!
Tony

Hello tonynt,

Yes, placing the division in the parenthesis of the RoundDownToTickSize() method will have the result of (hightz1+lowtz1)/2 rounded.

You can also use Median[] or Medians[][] as you would Close[] or Closes[][] to get the median price of a bar.

This labeled line add-on will NOT save as varying templates. You can save templates with varying settings, but when you load them the saved parameters are not loaded.

Hello ziponline,

I've tested saving a template for this drawing tool and I am finding the values are being saved.

Below is a link to a video of the test.
