                       ArgumentField="@((ApplePrice i) => i.Date)"
                       Name="AAPL" />
    <DxChartAnnotation Argument="new DateTime(2021, 4, 20)"
                       Series="AAPL"
                       Text="Fifth generation of iPad Pro"
                       TextOverflow="@CurrentTextOverflow"
                       WordWrap="@CurrentWordWrap"
                       VerticalOffset="75"
