Place text or value at each index in a chart.

Is there a way, other than drawing tools, to place strings (or values) on a chart on a per index basis? For example, how are the BIDVOL x ASKVOL strings displayed in the Numbers Bars study? The only index based text styles that I see that will display a text label for the values in a subgraph are DRAWSTYLE_VALUE_ON_HIGH and DRAWSTYLE_VALUE_ON_LOW, which works great for two values but, without a vertical displacement parameter, gets crowded for more than that. DRAWSTYLE_VALUE_OF_SUBSTRING would be great if there were a way to specify the subgraph with the value to display and the index of the subgraph to determine the placement (such as price), but it does not work that way. It is easy to put a single column of strings on the chart using DRAWSTYLE_TEXT, but it is not clear how it is possible to place arbitrary footprint data at each index on a chart. Is there ASCIL access to whatever Numbers Bars uses? A comment from WarriorTrader from 2011 or 2012 made me think that he might know how to do this, but it surely is not obvious to me. |

This data originates from the Volume at Price container on each Graph object.The closest that is available DRAWSTYLE_TEXT, but there is only one text string per Study Subgraph. So you are limited to the number of text strings based upon the maximum number of Subgraphs. There is no ACSIL access right now with what Numbers Bars does. We will put that down on our longer-term to do list. Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support. Other responses are from users.

OK. Thanks. Although text would be nice, I just need to put out the values of various subgraphs. Would it be possible to add a drawstyle (DRAWSTYLE_VALUE_ON_ARRAY), just like DRAWSTYLE_VALUE_ON_LOW, that outputs the value of the subgraph but instead of outputting at the low, it outputs it at the value in the first Arrays array? |

This has been supported a while now. Refer to this particular Draw Style: Chart Studies: Custom Value At Y (ACSIL: DRAWSTYLE_CUSTOM_VALUE_AT_Y) Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.
