I would like to put the value of the price marker above the price bar candle.

David R published something similar, wave volume https://nexusfi.com/download/vip_elite_circle/page-1.html&page=3 , maybe you could get inspired by his code.

I understand that you want to see the volume of the last current candle.
You can use DrawText() to achieve it. Do not use a dynamic tag, but a static one. That way you are sure that only the current volume is plotted.
It should be enough to add these lines to any indicator:
Code
DrawOnPricePanel = true; // Initialize section
DrawText("CurrentVolume", true , Convert.ToString(Volume[0]), 0, High[0], 20, Color.Red,
ChartControl.Font, StringAlignment.Near, Color.Transparent, Color.Transparent, 0);

yes that's what I was trying to do. with the draw text function. unfortunately couldn't make it work.
but now, with your help, I might get it right. thanks a bunch.

just to let you know, it's working like you said it would.
thanks again, very much appreciated.
