    Yes, thank you Zigfried! That fixed it.
    I used: Draw.VerticalLine(this, "tag1"+CurrentBar, 0, Brushes.Brown); //works excellent on NT8

    Looks like you may be using the name "tag1" for each line, so you are only getting one line. Change the name to something like ("tag" + CurrentBar) to get unique line names.

    Hello, for some reason with my ninja trader 8 code, no matter what Draw.VerticleLine or Draw.Line is called, it only draws a single verticle line on the last bar of the chart. It doesn't draw any other lines. So if there is a condition met then draw a verticle line. It draws one time even when the condition is met. Always on the very last bar on the chart.

    Draw.Line("My vertical line2" + CurrentBar, 0, Color.Cyan, DashStyle.Dash, 3);

    Draw.Line(this, "tag1", false, 0, 1000, 0, 1001, Brushes.LimeGreen, DashStyleHelper.Dot, 2);

    if (Times[0][0].TimeOfDay == new TimeSpan(08,00, 0))
    Draw.VerticalLine(this, "tag1"+CurrentBar, 0, Brushes.Green);

    Draw.VerticalLine(this, "someOtherfib", k, Brushes.Blue);

    Draw.VerticalLine(this, "someOtherfib", CurrentBar, Brushes.Blue);

    Any thoughts as to why this would happen.
    My only idea is that it may be related to:

    if (BarsInProgress != 0)
    return;

    Hello Dragon989,

    Thank you for your note.

    The following would draw a vertical line on the most recent current bar, 0.
    Draw.VerticalLine(this, "tag1",0, Brushes.Green);

    When you're passing 64500 its drawing a line 645000 bars Ago.

    If you wanted a line drawn at a specific time each day, say 9AM, you could use the following,

    if (Times[0][0].TimeOfDay == new TimeSpan(08,00, 0))
    Draw.VerticalLine(this, "tag1"+CurrentBar, 0, Brushes.Green);

    Notice I amend "Tag1" with the current bar, so the same line is not redrawn on each call but a new line is created.

    See draw.vertical line section of our HG:


    Please let us know if you need further assistance.

  • How to enter vertical line in chart output for Strategy Analyzer

    I'm trying to add a vertical line everyday that is being analyzed at a specific time. I've yet to make anything display and assuming I'm handling the time input incorrectly?

    Code:
    Draw.VerticalLine(this, "tag1", 64500, Brushes.Green)
    Thanks!
