Post From: Showing text strings instead of number values on chart from spreadsheet.

Hiya,

I'm currently trying to systemize my trading strategies by showing the name of the strategy on my chart based on if statements in a spreadsheet. I have noticed however that the studies (text display for study and text display for study from chart) don't show text strings on charts. It does not have any problem however with numbers. Is this something that could be fixed or am I using them in the wrong way?

So I have a if function in my spreadsheet that returns for example "Bracketed market" when the high is lower than today's and the low is higher. That string is supposed to be on my chart with the study Text display for study, but only numbers show up. Examples in the images.

Kind regards,
Lando
