Hi there,

How am I able to configure my charts so Horizontal lines are plotted out automatically at every major price change (whole numbers)?? Is there a study for that?? Is there a way to configure a custom study for that??

i.e. On EURUSD If I want to have horizontal lines plotted out at every major price change- 1.10000, 1.09000, 1.08000, 1.05000, 1.04000 etc...
Or On USDJPY at 115.000, 116.000, 117.000, 118.000 etc.
And so on for each currency pair??

Up to this point, I've just gone into each of my charts and manually plotted out horizontal lines at each level..... and it takes F O R E V E R ! ! ! :/

If this function/study currently isn't available, can we PLEASE PLEASE have it built into the next update??

Thanks!

You need to use this Scale Setting:
Chart Scale and Scale Adjusting: Horizontal Grid Line Increment (Scale Settings)


Refer to the documentation here to open the Scale Settings window for the chart:

How can I add a price label to each horizontal line when using the scale settings??

Set the Scale Increment also on the Scale Settings window to the same as the Horizontal Grid Line Increment:

Would anyone be interested in coding a custom study that draws a horizontal line at round numbers? Not gridline scale setting, a normal study, with a subgraph colors, thickness, style and labels etc.

How much would it cost?
