exactly my problem also. I want to plot lot of texts, arrows, shapes
etc near range bar breakouts. but the coordinates are in pixels, and I
do not know any way to get the pixels of the High of a bar identified,
unless its built from scratch as the code posted here previously. so
the low level functions may not be useful to traders who write their
own systems with some amount of coding, but more to developers who can
enhance features for Amibroker.
