Use Draw.Text to add text of a double variable on chart

[burtoninlondon]

Hello,

I have a private variable that is a double (it is a price value from my chart which is generated depending on my entry conditions) which I want to add to my chart as text when the entry conditions appear.

I think I need to use the Draw.Text syntax however as my variable is a double type and not string the command does not execute.

(Draw.Text(NinjaScriptBase owner, string tag, bool isAutoScale, string text, int barsAgo, double y, int yPixelOffset, Brush textBrush, SimpleFont font, TextAlignment alignment, Brush outlineBrush, Brush areaBrush, int areaOpacity))

How can I convert the double variable to a string variable so that I can insert it into the line of code?

Thanks,

Neil

Hello Neil,

Thanks for your post.

You could use .ToString() on your variable to convert the variable to a string. For example, see the sample code below.

double [B]closePrice[/B] = Close[0];

Draw.Text(this, "tag1", [B]closePrice.ToString()[/B], 0, Low[0] - 10 * TickSize, Brushes.DodgerBlue);

See this help guide documentation for more information about using .ToString(): https://ninjatrader.com/support/help...htsub=ToString

Let me know if I may assist further.
