Default Programing dots at the bottom of the screen

I am developing a strategy where when certain conditions are met, a dot ( or arrow) appears on the chart. I am not wanting to clutter the chart and wondered if there may be a wizard programming way of getting the dots to appear at the bottom of the chart. IT would be great if I when adjusting the side scale they would always be at the bottom. ( or alternatively in a separate window beneath the chart?
Thanks
Raycam

Hello,

Thank you for your forum post.

This is possible however would take overriding the plot method to achieve this which is unfortunately unsupported by NinjaScript.

The best way I could recommend to do this is to put it in its own panel down below.

Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Thanks Brett
Is it possible to place it in the panel below the main chart- via the wizard?

Hello,

Unfortunately not possible with the wizard would take a NinjaScript Indicator to do this..

Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Cool

Ahh right.
It's taken me a couple of years to understand the strategy wizard, I have opened the indicator wizard a few times and just been stumped as to how to design things. Is there a fact sheet link on how to get started in that area?
Thanks
