TradeStation EasyLanguage tutorial 114 DT 3 | Draws boxes between two start and end times each day
_Tutorial 114 DT 3 draws boxes between two start and end times each day. If a chart does not have a bar with a specific time stamp corresponding to the start time the box will be drawn from the following bar. Similarly, if the chart does not have a bar corresponding to the end time, the box will be drawn to the following bar.
Drawing boxes might be useful if you wished to highlight trading activities and levels between certain times. Alternatively, although the times and price levels in this program are specified as user inputs, you could use the techniques built into this tutorial in a more sophisticated program that calculated levels.
The tutorial program uses the rectangle class with several of its properties and the create class. The tutorial demonstrates the creation of a method to create the rectangles, which is called from several places in the program. Tutorial 114 DT 3 creates five boxes at different price levels in each time zone..
A user input (ExtendRight) determines whether a box that is currently under development for real time bars is extended to the right or just extended to the current bar (until the end time is reached).
