Indicator vertical scale

[lkuo.me]

Hi,

I wrote an indicator which draws a rectangle based on some calculated data. Sometimes the rectangle height is pretty big and the chart would automatically adjust to it. (Please see a screenshot attached)

Is there a way to avoid the chart resized based on indicators?

Thanks.

Hello lkuo.me,

Thanks for your post.

When you apply the indicator to a chart, like any indicator, you can set the indicator visual parameter "autoscale" to false. This setting of false means that objects drawn by the indicator will not be included in the autoscaling of the chart, however, this also means that you may not see objects drawn by the indicator if they are not drawn on the scale in use at the time. You can toggle Autoscale on or off as you wish.

Alternatively, you can code this in the Ninjascript using IsAutoScale = false; Reference: http://ninjatrader.com/support/helpG...sautoscale.htm

Hi, sorry for taking so long to reply.

Wasn't able to solve the problem following the instruction. Do you mind take another look please?

Thanks

Make sure the autoscale input to the Draw.Rectangle is also false

Draw.Rectangle(NinjaScriptBase owner, string tag, bool isAutoScale, int startBarsAgo, double startY, int endBarsAgo, double endY, Brush brush, Brush areaBrush, int areaOpacity)
