I have question about plotting lines on a chart........I'm starting a journey into programming and have a question. When we draw a line on a chart via the mouse event I would consider that a draw object.

When the program plots a line on the chart via code I would consider that a plot.

My question is this.

If I want to plot a line on a chart via the code based on an event, can the plot object still be referred to as draw.

for example

State == State.SetDefaults

AddPlot(new Stroke(Brushes.SteelBlue, DashStyleHelper.Dash,

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////

State == State.Historical

{
if (!Bars.BarsType.IsIntraday)
{
Draw.TextFixed(this, "NinjaScriptInfo",

This is snippets from the NT 8 PriorDayOHLC

I think my questioned is answered but just want to make sure.........I tend to over think things a little.

Thank you
