Help Needed: Drawing Vertical Lines and Labels in Trading Data
Hey everyone, I've been looking through various examples but I can't figure out how to draw vertical lines from the last price, bid, or ask, and how to include labels with information inside them. I'm a budding programmer and maybe I'm just not finding the information. Thanks to anyone who can help me out.

Hi, the summary for APIs are here https://bookmap.com/knowledgebase/docs/API
If you're a beginner you may want to start with Simplified API (Java) or Python API.
https://bookmap.com/knowledgebase/docs/ ... lified-api
https://bookmap.com/knowledgebase/docs/ ... Python-API
These will let you draw simple indicators, e.g. Simplified API last price indicator

For very simple labels you can use examples with icons from Simplified API. But Core API (Java) is highly recommended for labels. Though, beginners may find it not so easy to use.
