Hi, The trick is to use Ref(Buy, -1) to recognize a signal at the previous bar, and then to provide the BuyPrice as the Y coordinate.
I think that you will find that the star is much too large an image for what you are trying to do. Use a small circle instead as follows: PlotShapes(IIf(Ref(Buy, -1), shapeSmallCircle, shapeNone), colorBrightGreen, 0, BuyPrice, 0); Not sure if you need to use Ref on the BuyPrice too. Experiment and find out. Mike --- In [email protected], "ozzyapeman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hope someone can help with this very basic (maybe dumb) question.
