Drawing Rectangles

[reynoldsn]

I have a strategy that generates about 4 signals in 1 week of backtesting in Strategy Analyzer.
Each signal is supposed to draw a rectangle.
But usually what happens it that only the last rectangle appears.
(I think once, I saw all the rectangles)

I am using unique tags.
I'm using

Random random = new Random();
int randomNumber = random.Next(0, 1000);
Draw.Rectangle(this, "tag" + randomNumber, widthBars, High[widthBars] - TickSize, 0, Low[0] + TickSize, Brushes.Blue);

How can I get all the rectangles to draw?

Figured it out - I was not using

Random random = new Random();

correctly

Hello reynoldsn,

If you are attempting to use unique tag names, I recommend adding CurrentBar to the tag name.
