[amibroker] Re: Plot arrows

That will put the arrow below the close which may be in the candle.  I think you really want to put the buy up arrow below the low and the sell or short down arrow above the high. You can play with the amount. -5 may be enough to get the arrow away from the candle. 

up and down arrows seem to require different values than other shapes.  

These are the ones I use for arrows:

PlotShapes(Buy 	* shapeUpArrow, colorGreen, 0, Low, -5);
PlotShapes(Sell * shapeDownArrow, colorred,0, High, -5 );
PlotShapes(Short * shapeHollowDownArrow, colorred, 0, High, -20 );
PlotShapes(Cover * shapeHollowUpArrow, colorgreen, 0, Low, -20);

Here I use -20 for short and cover in case the arrows are on the same bar wiht a buy and sell.  That will prevent a buy and cover or short and sell arrows from overlapping.
