I am not able to get the idea how to provide the time correctly to draw a line. I tried like ObjectCreate('line', OBJ_HLINE, 0, 0, 2100); which is drawing a line at the value of 2100, but it starts from 0 and spreads to the right end unlimited. How to draw the line starting from the 50th candle from last till the second last candle? I also tried ObjectCreate('line', OBJ_HLINE, 0, Time[50], 2100, Time[1], 2100);

You'll need a trend line and switch off the ray. //assign parameters (2 moments in time, 2 prices (equal for Horizontal), **unique** name) double price1 = 2100; double price2 = price1; datetime time1 = iTime(0,0,50); datetime time2 = iTime(0,0,1); string name = "nameOnceUsedIsInvaladidForNextLinesToBeNamed"; //create the line ObjectCreate(ChartID(),name,OBJ_TREND,0,time1,price1,time2,price2); //switch off the ray ObjectSetInteger(ChartID(),name,OBJPROP_RAY,false);

This function will help you draw the Horizontal Line From the 50th candle to the 2nd last candle. void drawTrendLine() { datetime time1 = Time[50]; double price1 = Close[50]; datetime time2 = Time[1]; double price2 = Close[50]; ObjectDelete(ChartID(), "CustomTrendLine"); // Delete the object if already exist ObjectCreate(ChartID(),"CustomTrendLine",OBJ_TREND,0,time1,price1,time2,price2); ObjectSetInteger(ChartID(),"CustomTrendLine",OBJPROP_RAY_RIGHT,false); }
