Hi,

Is there a snip of example code that shows how to place markers on the screen for patterns? Similar to the candle stuff in the standard library of indicators.

I could start to try and figure it out myself but if there is a simple example available that would make life much easier. ..

We are not sure, that we understand what exactly do you mean.
But we believe that this documentations will help you https://www.dukascopy.com/swiss/docs/interfaces/IChart.htm
If you still have questions, please do not hesitate to ask.

Sorry for not being explicit enough ..

I have noticed the IChart interface already in one of the other posts on the forum, thank you.
But looking, for example, at the CDLDOJI indicator i was wondering whether the code would be available as an example to write a new pattern indicator. Call it a template/ starting point form where to start writing a new and different pattern indicator.

I have noticed example code for overlay indicators and separate window indicators but nothing for a pattern indicator. Hence the question.

Any chance of such code being made available? Would be very helpful indeed.

You can download those with a JForexClientLibrary https://www.dukascopy.com/swiss/english/forex/jforex/library/
You will find them in a indicators-sources.jar

Hi Support,

I'm afraid they are not ..
I just downloaded the latest & greatest API zip and looked in both sources jars but i cannot find any .java file called CDLDOJI (or any other candle/ pattern source code) ..

If not in the above mentioned jar there where can i get a copy of (for instance) the CDLDOJI source?

CDLDOJI is a Ta-lib indicator (here is all list of their indicators https://ta-lib.org/function.html)
And still in the indicators-sources.jar you will find all indicators, that is created by Dukascopy team. All others are third party indicators.

Thank you, i understand.
The highlighted/ bracketed candles, is that code also written by the third parties or is that some sort of wrapper you (dukas) wrote to show the indicator on your platform/ chart?

An example of the code required to place the markers around the candles is actually what i'm looking for. Since i'm not too proficient in programming visual 'stuff' i thought i would ask.

You don't need to do it by your self. In the indicator as an output drawing style need to be used style OutputParameterInfo.DrawingStyle.PATTERN_BULL_BEAR. Output values should be positive or negative values. Here is Java docs https://www.dukascopy.com/swiss/docs/api/com/dukascopy/api/indicators/OutputParameterInfo.DrawingStyle.html#PATTERN_BULL_BEAR
