Colored Support and Resistance Zones

[sub5mango]

Hi Dierk

Thanks for the references and I think these are data series, am I wrong?
Heres the code.

protectedoverridevoid Initialize()
{
Add(new Plot(Color.Red, PlotStyle.Line, "Line1"));
Add(new Plot(Color.Red, PlotStyle.Line, "Line2"));

}
protectedoverridevoid OnBarUpdate()
{
if (Line1Value != 0) Line1.Set(Line1Value);
if (Line2Value != 0) Line2.Set(Line2Value);

DrawRegion("First", CurrentBar, 0, Line1, Line2, Color.Black, Color.Khaki, 2);

}
#region Properties
[Browsable(false)]
[XmlIgnore()]
public DataSeries Line1
{
get { return Values[0]; }
}

//repeated for Line2

}

[Description("Line 1 value")]
[Category("Parameters")]
publicdouble Line1Value
{
get { return line1Value; }
set { line1Value = value; }
}

If you get an error, double click on the error message to see what's wrong.

I am having a very difficult time with constructing this, if someone could show me the code for an example, it would be very useful and appreciated.

What would the code be to color the region between
y=11656 and
y=11676

If what you want is to do a simple rectangle coloring I suggest you use DrawRectangle().

DrawRectangle("tag1", CurrentBar, 11676, 0, 11656, Color.Blue);

plotting a rectangle

What would the correct code be to have a custom rectangle that is plotted across a single day?

So, the inputs might be:

dim Topedge as double;
dim Bottomedge as double;
dim RectangleDate as ?;

// and the draw command would be something like:
// except i don't know how to set the left and right edges...
DrawRectangle("Rect", CurrentBar, Topedge, 0, Bottomedge, Color.Blue);

DrawRectangle("Rect", Bars.BarsSinceSession, Topedge, 0, Bottomedge, Color.Blue);
