Hello,

I was trying to draw pivot without other values and more importantly period separator from within my code.

Please, consider the following strategy :

package jforex;

import java.awt.Color;

import com.dukascopy.api.Configurable;
import com.dukascopy.api.IAccount;
import com.dukascopy.api.IBar;
import com.dukascopy.api.IChart;
import com.dukascopy.api.IChartObject;
import com.dukascopy.api.IChartPanel;
import com.dukascopy.api.IConsole;
import com.dukascopy.api.IContext;
import com.dukascopy.api.IEngine;
import com.dukascopy.api.IHistory;
import com.dukascopy.api.IIndicators;
import com.dukascopy.api.IMessage;
import com.dukascopy.api.IStrategy;
import com.dukascopy.api.ITick;
import com.dukascopy.api.IUserInterface;
import com.dukascopy.api.Instrument;
import com.dukascopy.api.JFException;
import com.dukascopy.api.Period;
import com.dukascopy.api.indicators.IIndicator;
import com.dukascopy.api.indicators.IndicatorInfo;
import com.dukascopy.api.indicators.OutputParameterInfo.DrawingStyle;

public class PivotEx implements IStrategy {
    private IEngine engine;
    private IConsole console;
    private IHistory history;
    private IContext context;
    private IIndicators indicators;
    private IUserInterface userInterface;
    private IChart chart;
    private IIndicator fourHoursPivot;
    
    @Configurable("Show")
    public boolean showEx = true;
    
    public void onStart(IContext context) throws JFException {
        this.engine = context.getEngine();
        this.console = context.getConsole();
        this.history = context.getHistory();
        this.context = context;
        this.indicators = context.getIndicators();
        this.userInterface = context.getUserInterface();
        
        chart = context.getChart(context.getSubscribedInstruments().iterator().next());
        
        fourHoursPivot = indicators.getIndicator("PIVOT");
        fourHoursPivot.setOptInputParameter(0, Period.FOUR_HOURS); 
        fourHoursPivot.setOptInputParameter(1, true); 
        
        printIndicatorInfos(fourHoursPivot);
        
        if (showEx) {
           chart.add(fourHoursPivot, new Object[] { Period.FOUR_HOURS, true },

                   new DrawingStyle[] { DrawingStyle.LINE, DrawingStyle.NONE,  DrawingStyle.NONE,  DrawingStyle.NONE, 
                   DrawingStyle.NONE,  DrawingStyle.NONE,  DrawingStyle.NONE,  DrawingStyle.NONE,  DrawingStyle.NONE, 
                   DrawingStyle.NONE,  DrawingStyle.NONE,  DrawingStyle.NONE,  DrawingStyle.NONE, DrawingStyle.NONE}, 
                  new int[] { 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1 });
        } else {

                   new DrawingStyle[] { DrawingStyle.LINE }, 
                   new int[] { 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1 });
        }
    }

    public void onAccount(IAccount account) throws JFException {
    }

    public void onMessage(IMessage message) throws JFException {
    }

    public void onStop() throws JFException {
       chart.removeIndicator(fourHoursPivot);
    }

    public void onTick(Instrument instrument, ITick tick) throws JFException {
    }
    
    public void onBar(Instrument instrument, Period period, IBar askBar, IBar bidBar) throws JFException {
    }
    
    private void printIndicatorInfos(IIndicator ind){
        IndicatorInfo info = ind.getIndicatorInfo();
        context.getConsole().getOut().println(String.format("%s: input count=%s, optional input count=%s, output count=%s",
            info.getTitle(), info.getNumberOfInputs(), info.getNumberOfOptionalInputs(), info.getNumberOfOutputs()));
        for (int i = 0; i < ind.getIndicatorInfo().getNumberOfInputs(); i++){
           context.getConsole().getOut().println(String.format("Input %s: %s - %s", i, ind.getInputParameterInfo(i).getName(), ind.getInputParameterInfo(i).getType()));
        }
        for (int i = 0; i < ind.getIndicatorInfo().getNumberOfOptionalInputs(); i++){
           context.getConsole().getOut().println(String.format("Opt Input %s: %s - %s", i, ind.getOptInputParameterInfo(i).getName(), ind.getOptInputParameterInfo(i).getType()));
        }
        for (int i = 0; i < ind.getIndicatorInfo().getNumberOfOutputs(); i++){
           context.getConsole().getOut().println(String.format("Output %s: %s - %s", i, ind.getOutputParameterInfo(i).getName(), ind.getOutputParameterInfo(i).getType()));
        }
    }
}

The exception thrown
Exception in drawOutput method: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: null Stroke @ com.dukascopy.indicators.PivotIndicator.doDrawOutput(PivotIndicator.java:575)

Thank you

This will be fixed in the next platform release.
