draw line from strategy to several panels on chart

[savekad]

how can i make a strategy to draw a horitzontal line on all loaded panel of the chart?

i guess this is not supported but i just need the right direction to where drawing methods like RemoveDrawObjects and DrawHorizontalLine are located at and how to have them called to a specific panel of the chart.

i have a feeling it is somewhere aroung ChartControl.BarsArray[n].something but i couldn't get anywhere from there.

btw, i don't want to load the script to every panel or to use an indicator. i really want the strategy to draw lines on all panels by itself, after loading it to only one DS object.

Hello savekad,
Thanks for your post.

Say you have added a SMA on the separate panel and want to add a line on the SMA, then please use the below code to do it.

//In Initialize

Add(RSI(14, 3));   //Add a RSI
Add(SMA(14));     //Add a SMA

//Set property for the SMA
SMA(14).Panel = 2;
SMA(14).DrawOnPricePanel = false;

You can then draw an object on the 2nd panel as

//in OnBarUpdate

SMA(14).DrawLine("line", true,10, SMA(14)[0], 0, SMA(14)[0], Color.Blue, DashStyle.Dot, 2);

thanks Joydeep but please consider the following:

what if i would like to use only the script i wrote, and to have it loaded only one time.

something like this:

protected override void Initialize()
{
 for (int n = 1; n < ChartControl.BarsArray.Length; n++)
 {
  Add(ChartControl.BarsArray[n].Instrument.FullName, ChartControl.BarsArray[n].Period.Id, ChartControl.BarsArray[n].Period.Value);
 }
}
protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{
 for (int n = 1; n < BarsArray.Length; n++)
 {
  DrawHorizontalLine(BarsArray[n], Close[0]);  // totally made that one up just to emphesize the point
 }
}

the goal is to open a chart with, lets say, 2 instruments (in two panels), load a script to one panel and have the script draw lines on both panels using no other indicator or another script load.

Hello savekad,
Unfortunately the BarsArray does not have Draw Object property.

You can create a dummy indicator and assign it to the necessary panel and then draw the Horizontal Line.

i imagined it can't be done with BarsArray. but what other options are available for me without calling an indicator?

i just want one script to draw objects on different panels. without calling other scripts.

Hello savekad,
Unfortunately I am not aware of any other methods.
