This will plot text in the margin to the right. A lot of the code on the net uses calcdate and calctime to determine a date,time location in the future. This is a simplification that uses current date,time instead. Distance into the future is adjusted by the number of spaces between quotation marks in the SetString statement.

It's best to start simple and increase complexity. To add text for an average, add id2 and set id2's string to use +numtostr(avg,2) and it's location to (id2,d,t,avg); Or (id2,d,t,avg+10) if you have a reason to adjust it 10 pts higher.

var: id(0);

once begin
    id=text_new(d,t,c," ");
    text_setstyle(id,0,2);
end;

text_setString(id,"      " +numtostr(c,2));
text_setLocation(id,d,t,c);
