Member of [ChartArea](https://help.ctrader.com/ctrader-algo/references/Chart/ChartArea/index.md).

## DrawGannSquare(string name, DateTime time1, double y1, DateTime time2, double y2, Color color)

Draws a Gann square.

Environments: Desktop supported · CLI works differently · Cloud works differently.

- CLI: The object is created and returned, but never drawn: the CLI displays no chart.
- Cloud: The object is created and returned, but never drawn: the cloud displays no chart.

C#:

```csharp
ChartGannSquare DrawGannSquare(string name, DateTime time1, double y1, DateTime time2, double y2, Color color)
```

Python:

```python
chartArea.DrawGannSquare(name: str, time1: DateTime, y1: float, time2: DateTime, y2: float, color: Color) -> ChartGannSquare
```

### Parameters

- `name` (`string`, Python `str`): The chart object name - a unique name that can be only used once for a chart area. If duplicated, the chart object will be replaced with a new one of the same name.
- `time1` (`DateTime`, Python `DateTime`): The time value of the Gann square start point location on the X-axis.
- `y1` (`double`, Python `float`): The Y-axis value of the Gann square start point location.
- `time2` (`DateTime`, Python `DateTime`): The time value of the Gann square end point location on the X-axis.
- `y2` (`double`, Python `float`): The Y-axis value of the Gann square end point location.
- `color` (`Color`, Python `Color`): The Gann square lines color.

### Returns

`ChartGannSquare` — ChartGannSquare.
