I want to implement a traffic light in the upper right hand corner of my streaming chart. I can not get my mind around the cosmetic chart functions. Some are bar,price based and some are x,y co-ordinate based. I would like to use x,y co-ords but the circle function does not support this.

If i go price,bar how do I calculate the top (price) of the screen?

thanks

Instead of drawing your traffic lights yourself, it would be much more efficient and easy to get images of traffic lights and then use DrawImage.

DrawImage is still the right way to go here, but fwiw, expanding on Eugene's idea -
