Finding coordinates for a trendline
14 Mar 2019, 08:14

Hi,

 

After drawing a trendline on chart, I can find the object with chartobject.findallobjects. But I can't find it's coordinates, starting point and final point (bar number and price value). I've tryed some functions but I'm not so good in programming... :(

Any idea how can I do this?

 

thx

Hi iulianalinchiru,

Trend line coordinates are kept in Time1, Time2 and Y1, Y2 properties. See here.

Best Regards,

Hi iulianalinchiru,

You need to cast the object to a ChartTrendLine. See below

var trendline = (chartObject as ChartTrendLine);
