Drawsegment to Highest/Lowest point

margincallcat · 2017-11-21T08:03:39+00:00

Hi! I would like to draw segments to the specific tops and bottoms of the Highest[x](high) and lowest[x](low) points. As for now i have written this: toplookback=10 hh=highest[toplookback](high) ll=lowest[toplookback](low) if high[1]=hh[1] then highy=hh[1] highx=barindex[1] endif if low[1]=ll[1] then lowy=ll[1] lowx=barindex[1] endif drawsegment(highx,highy,barindex,highy) drawsegment(lowx,lowy,barindex,lowy) but this only draws WHEN a specific high or low actually was the highest/lowest point so far. I cant get around how i would write if i want the segments to be drawn to the actual CURRENT highest/lowest points. So the issue is finding the x (or) barindex-values that tells probuilder where to draw the segments.

Hi!
I would like to draw segments to the specific tops and bottoms of the Highest[x](high) and lowest[x](low) points.

As for now i have written this:
```
toplookback=10
hh=highest[toplookback](high)
ll=lowest[toplookback](low)

if high[1]=hh[1] then
highy=hh[1]
highx=barindex[1]
endif
if low[1]=ll[1] then
lowy=ll[1]
lowx=barindex[1]
endif


drawsegment(highx,highy,barindex,highy)
drawsegment(lowx,lowy,barindex,lowy)
```
but this only draws WHEN a specific high or low actually was the highest/lowest point so far.

I cant get around how i would write if i want the segments to be drawn to the actual CURRENT highest/lowest points.

So the issue is finding the x (or) barindex-values that tells probuilder where to draw the segments.

If you want to draw only the last highest high and lowest low segments, just add this line at the top of your code:
```
defparam drawonlastbaronly=true
```
