Plot double as bar in panel2

[tonynt]

Hello,

after trying for days I still can not make it running in my indicator that the result (double value) from calculations each bar is plotted as a bar in a new panel below chart. I can print in output window and I can plot it in the chart above/below each bar but I dont understand how to plot it as a bar in a new panel with size/height from the double value (for each price bar in chart panel)

Thank you!
Tony

Hi Tony, thanks for posting.

OnRender will need to be used to plot custom bars. There's an example here showing how to plot candle sticks in the OnRender method:

Hello,

thank you for your reply. My description was not correct, sorry about that, but this sample here is also interesting for new ideas.

I meant with bars in a new panel plotting bars eg like volume.

Thank you!

Hi Tony, thanks for your reply.

When you make your plot, specify the plot style as a Bar. e.g.

AddPlot(new Stroke(Brushes.DodgerBlue, 2), PlotStyle.Bar, "VOLPlot"); //from the VOL indicator

The plot value for each bar will be represented as a histogram, each bar starting from 0.
