Using a daily chart indicator on an intraday chart

[kaywai]

Hi,

I have an indicator that calculates based on daily chart data. How can I place these values / lines on an intraday chart without having to draw them manually?

The issue I have is that, in addition to the previous day's high and low, it uses the day before's close and the current day's open.

Regards

Hello, thanks for writing in. The best example to look at is the PriorDayOHLC indicator, this is included with the platform. This does not add any 1 day series but it uses the primary series historical data to calculate the trading day values. The alternative to this would be to use Bars.GetDayBar():

Thanks ChrisL. That worked.

Hi ChrisL,

I've been able to draw lines with values calculated. Is it possible to have text drawn below those lines and to have them located at the extreme right of the chart, like in the fibonacci retracement tool in NT8?

Hello, thanks for the follow up. I have an example that labels all Horizontal lines on the chart here with their value (text).

Hi ChrisL,

Hi ChrisL,

I imported your LabeledHorizontalLines sharing this morning and tried it out. Unfortunately i can't get any labels on any of the horizontal lines. There isn't any message in the control center either. Please see attached and let me know if there is more information that you need.

Hello, thanks for the follow up. It works for me using Horizontal Lines. It will only work on specifically Horizontal lines drawn onto the chart. Try testing both programmatically drawn lines with Draw.HorizontalLine and do it manually from the chart.

Hi ChrisL,

Draw.HorizontalLines worked perfectly! I had them on Draw.Lines.

Thanks again.
