# Trouble positioning TikZ node

My code is

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usetikzlibrary{shapes.geometric}

\begin{document}

\begin{tikzpicture}
\node (0,0) {$M = \frac{A+B}{C \times D} + F + G$};
\draw[thick, red, ->] (-0.5,0.5) -- (-.35,2);
\draw[thick, red, ->] (0,0.5) -- (-.15,2);
\draw[thick, ->] (0.7,-0.25) -- (1,-2);
\draw[thick, ->] (1.3,-0.25) -- (1.1,-2);
\node[red, ellipse,draw] (-.2,2.5) {method 1};
\node[ellipse,draw] (1.1,-2.5) {method 2};
\end{tikzpicture}

\end{document}


And the result is

The result I want is

I'm not sure why the nodes aren't positioning correctly, because I think the coordinates given are right. If someone could help (and even better, explain) that'd be great.

Bonus question: How do you make it so just the node outline and not the text is red?

Thanks!

• you are missing the at before the coordinates – percusse Aug 16 '16 at 23:54
• @percusse, wow, I can't believe I made that mistake! =) Post that as an answer and I will accept it. (I think I'll also add something else to my question, first.) Thank you so much! – heather Aug 16 '16 at 23:56
• Use draw=red instead of red, draw, .... Text will stay black. – Alenanno Aug 17 '16 at 0:06
• @Alenanno, thanks so much! If you or percusse write an answer, I will accept it. – heather Aug 17 '16 at 0:07

The first question is just a typo, that is, at keyword was missing before the coordinates so it was understood as the name of the node. The bonus question is actually comes to the fact that when a standalone color is given it sets some kind of a generic \pgf....@current@color@.... for everything (behind the scenes it modifies the color . using the xcolor syntax)
\draw[draw=red,text=blue] ...
