Dear Trader,

Thanks for posting in our forum. You can use the DrawVerticalLine function.

Let me know if this information is helpful.

Yes. I'm using this function. But the lines are not displayed on the graph. Here is the code for the example:
 

[Robot(TimeZone = TimeZones.UTC, AccessRights = AccessRights.None)]
    public class TestBot : Robot
    {

        protected override void OnBar()
        {
            DateTime time = GetCurrentTime();
            string id = "line " + time;
            ChartObjects.DrawVerticalLine(id, time, Colors.Red);
            Print(id);
        }

        private DateTime GetCurrentTime()
        {
            return MarketSeries.OpenTime.LastValue;
        }
    }

Result:

Hi mishavas15@gmail.com,

From what I can see you are in the backtesting section. Lines are not drawn in the backtesting chart. Try to run the cBot on an actual chart.

Yes. For the actual chart works. Is there is a way of displayend lines in the backtest using bot?

Hi,

Currently there is no way to do this but this feature will be available in a future release of cTrader.
