Hello

I am looking for a simple indicator that draws a horizontal line across chart at current price.

very similar to the ninjatrader indicator


any help would greatly be appreciated.

I found this free TOS indicator online and it is real close to what I'm looking for but fails to draw across complete chart

 
Code
# Close Extended Line
# From within the script settings panel, change the value of lineLength to extend the line further if desired.

input lineLength = 4;
def barNumber = BarNumber();
def barCount = HighestAll(If(IsNaN(close), 0, barNumber));
def closeLine = if barNumber == 1 then Double.NaN else if barNumber == barCount - lineLength then close[-lineLength] else if barNumber == barCount then Double.NaN else closeLine[1];
plot data = closeLine;
     data.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.HORIZONTAL);
here is the link to the above code illustrating indicator in action
Fun with ThinkScript

thanks for any help

In the meantime I have found a solution directly from NinjaTrader:
how do I draw a horizontal price line? - [AUTOLINK]NinjaTrader[/AUTOLINK] Support Forum

Here is the video that explains how to do it: 2015-08-06_0713 - NT_Paul's library

This works also in NT8.

Best regards

Hi,

did you get it to work for TOS?

I tried something but it doesn't look like the one in the video..

Best regards,

Patrick
