Printing numbers DRAWTEXT

Newbie · 2020-12-31T13:55:53+00:00

Greetings Team I’m looking for any help on drawing numbers. The first part is drawing a whole number and the second is how to limit decimal places? defparam drawonlastbaronly=true If Year<>Year[1] then yearlyClose = close[1] yearlyHigh = Highest[BarIndex - lastYearBarIndex](High)[1] yearlyLow = Lowest[BarIndex - lastYearBarIndex](Low)[1] lastYearBarIndex = BarIndex endif drawtext("_PH #yearlyHigh#",barindex,yearlyhigh) coloured(204,0,204) drawtext("_PC #yearlyClose#",barindex,yearlyclose) coloured(204,0,204) drawtext("_PH #yearlyLow#",barindex,yearlylow) coloured(204,0,204) return My question is; how is it possible to print the price to either a whole number with NO decimal places, OR to say within 2 decimal places e.g. 12,161.00 I know in excel for example it’s possible to format cells to display information as XXX.XXX Is this possible in PRC? If so, how? Thank you for help in advance 🙂

Greetings Team

I’m looking for any help on drawing numbers. The first part is drawing a whole number and the second is how to limit decimal places?
```
defparam drawonlastbaronly=true
 
If Year<>Year[1] then
 yearlyClose = close[1]
 yearlyHigh = Highest[BarIndex - lastYearBarIndex](High)[1]
 yearlyLow = Lowest[BarIndex - lastYearBarIndex](Low)[1]
 lastYearBarIndex = BarIndex
endif
 
drawtext("_PH #yearlyHigh#",barindex,yearlyhigh) coloured(204,0,204)
drawtext("_PC #yearlyClose#",barindex,yearlyclose) coloured(204,0,204)
drawtext("_PH #yearlyLow#",barindex,yearlylow) coloured(204,0,204)
return
```
My question is; how is it possible to print the price to either a whole number with NO decimal places, OR to say within 2 decimal places e.g. 12,161.00

I know in excel for example it’s possible to format cells to display information as XXX.XXX

Is this possible in PRC? If so, how?

Thank you for help in advance 🙂

@Vonasi Thank you… I must have missed those in the repository! But they’re just perfect. I’ll get working to put them to good use.
