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

in the attached picture, I'm trying to show the volume (3114) above the candle. but so far couldn't figure it out.

thank you very much for your help.

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);

grazie mille.

yes that's what I'm after. but I'm afraid his code could over inspire me a bit.

thanks anyway.

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.
