How to automatically add levels in indicator?

For example, as is in RSI indicator.

I know I can add levels later when indicator is on the chart. But I would programm so that the level already appeared at the start

There is no such functionality in JForex-API.

OK Thanks,

I suggest to add such option.

Altough there is no explicit functionality in JForex, there is a workaround.

You can define an output, give them a value and format it.

Code could like this:

1.) Define the Level as Output
OutputParameterInfo level = new OutputParameterInfo("Level", OutputParameterInfo.Type.DOUBLE,
OutputParameterInfo.DrawingStyle.LEVEL_DASH_LINE)
{{
setShowOutput(true);
setName("Level");
setColor(Color.BLACK);
setLineWidth(2);
}}
;

2.) Add the Level to outputParameterInfos
outputParameterInfos = new OutputParameterInfo[] { indicatorLine, level};


3.) Allocate a value to the level (0 for the Zero-Level)
In this example i

public IndicatorResult calculate(int startIndex, int endIndex) {
......


outputs[0][j] = //= indicator = Result of "IndicatorResult calculate"

outputs[1][j] = 0; //constant value for the wanted level
..
}


You can add more level if you want.

Restrictions:
With the current API and the above workaround the level-lines disappear when you scroll back the chart, but they work on the "actual" part of the chart.

If anyone finds a better solution please send me the information.

Best would be, when the jForex-API would support levels.
