Bar by time

[pman777]

Hello, I need to draw a vertical line on my chart based on the bar containing a certain date/time. Any guidance on how to locate that spot on a chart. I'm using the DrawVerticalLine so I would need to know 'bars ago' that matches the time. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

Hello pman777,

Thank you for your note.

I have put together a sample which will draw a vertical line at current bar if the current date is equal to the desired date, and also included another way where upon a condition being met, a horizontal line will be drawn at a desired date.

To import a NinjaScript into NinjaTrader 7 do the following:
From the Control Center window select File -> Utilities-> Import NinjaScript...
Select the .Zip file for import.

Please see the following section of our helpguide,
