How to show text before actual write it?

The swing should be max 9. If upswing or downswing continues 1 bar should be without counting like in the picture. If the upswing or downswing fails the count should be reset and removed from the chart. There are many fail swings and it would be very nice to have them deleted from the chart.
Can you define a swimg, please?
When a swing can be called as such?
Because in my opinion a SWING is such when there’s an inversion bar after one of the two bars has set a ne high or low within the last N periods.
Why you numbered a candle 1, the next one 2 and the next one 3, or 4 and the restarted from 1 or continued to 5 (see attached pic)?An upswing is 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 in blue. When it reaches the 9 It should be fixed on the charts. A Downswing is 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 in red. When 9 is reached in the downswing it should be fixed on the charts. The part you highlighted in green is a upswing 1,2,3,4 but then the upswing turns into a downswing. Meaning the upswing is invalid and shouldn’t be displayed on the chart. The after you see 1 in the downswing. but also here the downswing is invalid after the first bar and shouldn’t be displayed on the charts. The part you highlighted red is the first part of a perfect swing. The swing goes up al the way to 9 and that’s what should be displayed on the charts. I added a photo of how a chart should be. In the picture all the fail swings are not displayed on the chart.
When the condition for the upswing is valid 1 should appear on the chart. the count is always 1-9 up or down up is blue down is red. After a full swing (1-9) the next candle should be one without a count if it’s in the same direction. For example after a full swing up (1-9 blue) the next candle can only be without then a new upswing can start. If the condition is vallid for a downswing (after the upswing is completed) the next candle can start with the downswing. I have already got it to a point that only the entire swing appears on the chart. Working with a downto command. The problem is that the swing will only appear if its fully completed. I added a picture of a chart where the upswing is started at the end of the graphic. If the condition for the upswing is invalid the upswing should be erased en the downswing should start. The second picture is when the downswing started and the upswing is erased from the chart. Its the same graphic only a little bit later. I highlighted the area where the count changed. It’s the same chart but instead of the the 3 count went to a invalid upswing and to a valid downswing, erasing the upswing (1,2,3) and instead started the downswing (1,2). The downswing 1(red) is now on the same bar but before it was the upswing 3 (blue).

So the crux is in there somewhere. 🙂
I think it should be possible that if a swing has not finished his 1-9 count is shown on the chart and if invalid can be erased if reloading the chart. Otherwise I do not understand how the chart I added works.
Value = 0 FOR i = 20 DOWNTO 0 DO //We are looping from 20 to 0 IF (Close[i] < Open[i]) THEN Value = Value + 1 ELSE BREAK ENDIF NEXT RETURN ValueSo we have something like this as a lead, right ?
It is also good to know that apparently the graphs you showed are taken from PRT fully, thus including the blue and red numbers. OK.
When a bar is drawn, you would be looking at the bar preceding it in order to see if it’s (again) going going up or not. If Up and the previous one also was Up, you would have a 1,2 in blue. When a third would be Down, you’d reset to -1 and draw that -1 in Red.
What you could try (is not so simple) :Maintain the positions where you wrote the previous numbers in an array. Thus, bar position and price position. From there you would be looping back to the first bar you would like to change, and a. erase its old number (write a space of sufficient width) and b. position the new number (which also involves the new vertical position, I think, but alas – you will see automatically).
Again, this will not be very simple and at least will involve more than I have time for. So I hope this gets you started ?
Maybe Roberto has some base code in his library he can provide (for you to work out further) ?For your idea, in the attachment I do a kind of similar to help you better understand. The vertical bar you see there, has an offset from the righthand side of the chart. It is always at the same position, like 30 bars (each bar in this case is 5 minutes). Well, although this is a line, it could just as well be a number like the yellow numbers at the yellow arrows you see in there. And … those numbers change just the same. See second attachment for a few minutes and one or two bars later.
So it looks feasible …
