DrawRectagle alignment
23 Nov 2019, 20:45

Is there anyway to draw a rectangle so its aligned to the left or right of a chart bar, to cover the full width of either a single or group of bars? At the moment drawing a rectangle starts mid bar.

Couldn't see anything in the docs, is it even possible?

Hi hackmushroom,

DrawRectangle and generally all Draw methods take DateTime type as input for the X axis. So to achieve what you need, you need to plot the rectangle x dimensions on the exact time the bars starts/ends e.g. the h1 bar is drawn at approximately -25/+25 minutes.

Best Regards,
