Hello,

I have a problem. When programming my indicators do not know what the syntax I am to use to plot the indicator always above the candlestick and not below the candlestick. View attached images. Can you help me?

Thanks in advance.

You can add the indicator to your chart, then select the plot on your chart, press the SHIFT button of your keyboard and turn the wheel of your mouse.

This allows you to have the plot either behind or in front of the candles.


The property can also be accessed programmatically.

If you add the line "ZOrder = 1;" to the Initialize() section of your indicator, the indicator should plot behind the candles. If you add "ZOrder = 10;" instead it should plot on top of the candles.

For more information, see this thread.
