ema and macd

[p1kn1t]

I am working on a script to show the trend of macd or ema

The script is working but I do not like where I am placing the data.

I have tried a few different methods but cannot get any of them to work.

• I tried to get this to write in its own panel but it continues to write in the data box no mater what I do
  • This would be my ideal solution if I could get it to work
  • here is an example:
    • Draw.Text(this, "MACDState1Min", "●", TrendLocation, textPositionY, currentColor1Min);
  • How do I get this to write in a different panel?
    • I have tried setting the indicator to a different panel and it does not work. Does draw.text only work in the main data box?
    • Specifically I would want it in a panel and just have the multiple lines left justified
• I could leave the draw.text where it is but when I switch from NQ to CL to YM the data displays in extreme locations
  • I created a setting that looks at the stock and determines where to place it and that works for the most part but maybe I want to eventually look at other futures
  • Another alternative would be writing an algoritm based on the size of the chart being displayed
    • I have tried to see if I could find the viewable chart range. In the example below it is showing 20240 to 19900
      • How do I see the range for the viewable chart (not candles)

Thanks for any suggestions.

Hello p1kn1t,

Thank you for your post.

You can set DrawOnPricePanel to false if you want the drawing objects to appear in the indicator panel instead of in the main price panel.

I am not sure why I missed that. Thanks
