Draw vertical line with Text.

  Hello.

  I want to add the text “DAX-Open” when drawing a vertical line at 07:00.
  I use code below to draw the line at 07:00 on DAX open but I cant get it to add only the text with a Font size/type/colour.
  I cant find the answer in https://www.prorealcode.com/documentation/drawtext/

  I will appreciate some assistance or point me in the direction where I can find the solution.
  Thank you.

  #######################
  if time=070000 then //DAX Open UTC+1
  drawvline(barindex)

  endif

  return

  Where do you want to draw the text?

  Thank you for the reply.

  Any of the two following options will be great.

  Preferable if the text can be parallel with the vertical line.
  Or
  If the text can be horizontal(90 Deg) to the vertical line. Somewhere in the middle of the screen or even at the bottom will also be fine.

  Whichever is possible.
  Thank you.

  It is not possible to draw text vertically (or any degree rotation from the normal horizontal line).

  if time=070000 then //DAX Open UTC+1 drawvline(barindex) atr=averagetruerange[14] drawtext("DAX Open",barindex,low-atr) endif return

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7

  if time=070000 then //DAX Open UTC+1 drawvline(barindex) atr=averagetruerange[14] drawtext("DAX Open",barindex,low-atr) endif   return

  Since coordinates are in barindex number and price, you’ll have to set the best place to plot the text, I made it with the Low of the DAX open bar minus one ATR.
