public FibonacciIndicatorKind Kind { get; set; }Property Value
| Type | Description |
|---|---|
| FibonacciIndicatorKind | A FibonacciIndicatorKind enumeration value which represents the kind of indicator. |
Available values:
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| FibonacciArcs | Identifies the Arcs kind of the Fibonacci Indicators. |
| FibonacciFans | Identifies the Fans kind of the Fibonacci Indicators. |
| FibonacciRetracement | Identifies the Retracement kind of the Fibonacci Indicators. |
Remarks
There are several distinct kinds of Fibonacci Indicators (represented by the FibonacciIndicator class), which are determined by the FibonacciIndicatorKind property, each having its own set of properties.
For more information, refer to the Fibonacci Indicators.
Example
This example demonstrates how to create a Fibonacci Indicator of a certain kind (Arcs, Fans or Retracements), and add it to a financial series.
To do this, create an instance of the FibonacciIndicator class, and specify its FibonacciIndicator.Kind property. Then, add this indicator to the series collection of indicators, returned by the XYDiagram2DSeriesViewBase.Indicators property.
