Draw.VerticalLine on 10th bar to the right (updates every bar)

[UltraNIX]

Hello, Can you help me with a code that draws vertical line on the 10th bar to the right (barsAgo = 9), and updates every bar, that means, that on each OnBarUpdate, previous vertical line is deleted and new line is drawn.

Hello UltraNix,

Thanks for your post.

You could use Draw.VerticalLine() to draw a vertical line on the chart at a specified bar.

See the sample code in the help guide documentation linked below which demonstrates drawing a vertical line using a barsAgo value of 10.

Draw.VerticalLine(): https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...rticalline.htm

If you would like to use a barsAgo value of 9, you would simply set that for your barsAgo argument when calling the Draw.VerticalLine() method.

Let us know if we may assist further.

It draws over chart candles. Is there a way to draw a line "under" (I mean that candles are in foreground, and line is in the background)?

Hello UltraNIX,

Thanks for your note.

You could use SetZOrder() to determine the index in which chart objects are drawn on the chart's Z-axis (front to back ordering). Objects with a higher ZOrder are drawn first.

See the attached example script demonstrating this.

And, see this help guide page for more information about SetZOrder(): https://ninjatrader.com/support/help.../setzorder.htm

Let us know if we may assist further.
