I would like to know if the price pane y-axis grid line values can be accessed? I don't want to change them, i want to know what their resolution is.

Attached are two pics, one labeled SPY the other KO. For SPY the price is resolved in $0.50 increments, KO is $0.25 increments which is fine in both cases.

What i would like to know is can I access those values so I could determine, for example in SPY, how many bar's low fell between $269.5 and $270.00 during some timeframe.

Thanks

Forgot pics

Why not keep it simple and create a function that loops over the Bars and counts the number of bars the Low was in between the boundaries?

Would like to, fact is it's what i'm trying to do. Problem is the boundary, i'm not setting it, i need to read it and would like to use the values you've rendered for the display and trying find out if i can access those values.

Say, using Linq, i've got a List of Low's for some timeframe and want to know which range (ie $269.5 - $270.00) contains the most Lows. How do I compute the range? I can estimate it or use your values and i pick the latter if it's available.

Couldn't find such property as the Y-Axis increment value among documented and undocumented properties of the ChartPane object or ChartRenderer (an undocumented class). But I wouldn't be far from the truth if I said that the Y-Axis values on the right are determined after the strategy processing has already finished. So the property would be of limited use in a Strategy.

Have a look at a method called PriceVolumeDist in the open source code of Community Components (../ExtensionMethods/CosmeticEx.cs). The logic you'll find inside will give an idea how to break a range of values into N bins and get the "weight" of each by summing up the values it comprises or by using a counter.

Will do, thanks.
