Hi,

You can use a chart trend line CalculateY method to check if the price is touched or not, this sample might help you:

using cAlgo.API;
using System;
using System.Linq;

namespace cAlgo
{
    [Indicator(IsOverlay = true, TimeZone = TimeZones.UTC, AccessRights = AccessRights.None)]
    public class LineAlert : Indicator
    {
        #region Parameters

        [Parameter("Single Alert", DefaultValue = true, Group = "General")]
        public bool SingleAlert { get; set; }

        [Parameter("Trend/Ray", DefaultValue = true, Group = "Line Types")]
        public bool TrendLine { get; set; }

        [Parameter("Horizontal", DefaultValue = true, Group = "Line Types")]
        public bool HorizontalLine { get; set; }

        [Parameter("Vertical", DefaultValue = true, Group = "Line Types")]
        public bool VerticalLine { get; set; }

RE:

Hi 

thanks for reply

i just need one line, which could be change by user on the chart, and in the bot side, we can get it's Y and compare with price, the most important point is that user can click and change the position or angle of the line

Hi,

You can draw an interactive chart trend line and then whenever the user changed it you can use the chart objects updated event.

RE:

Hi again

just one more problem.

i try to use this linePriceValue in for my stoploss:

position.ModifyStopLossPrice(Math.Round(DefaultSTL,Symbol.Digits)); or position.ModifyStopLossPrice(DefaultSTL);

but unfortunately i get the error:

23/07/2021 18:50:48.947 | → Modifying position PID17057357 (SL: 1.17751257895653, TP: 1.17541361298747) FAILED with error "InvalidStopLossTakeProfit", Position PID17057357

i print the linePriceValue and the printed value is OK but when i try to assign it to my position stoploss i get the error.

Hi,

Can you post the full code of your cBot, please?
