Current Price Line study, extend line to left

Is it possible to add an option in the 'Current Price Line' study to extend the current price line to the left edge of the chart? This would be useful to see if the current price is intersecting with any previous support/resistance levels.

I can set the 'Number of Bars to Display' to a large number to ensure that I if I zoom out of the chart the price line will still extend back over the whole chart, but having the option I suggested would be more convenient.

Thanks

Please consider adding support for it. There is a Draw Style which extends a line to the right (Line Extend to Edge), and I'm sure others would find it useful to extend lines to the left in various studies.

Thank you.

If we implement this as a draw style it is not a problem. So we will add: "Line at Last Bar to Left Side".

Has this been implemented? Basically need the Current Price Line to extend across the whole chart (both to the right side up to the scale and to the left side up to the end of the chart) just like in TradingView.

I use the Current Price Line and I AGREE that extending it across the WHOLE chart to BOTH scales would be very beneficial.
I hope it is implemented SOON!

@User907968
Thank you, that works partially.

There is one small issue. If I drag the chart to the left such that the a few of the right most price bars aren't visible anymore, the Current Price Line disappears. Is there a way to solve this?

You need to use this new Subgraph Draw Style:
LINE_FROM_END_OF_CHART_LEFT_TO_RIGHT

Refer to:
Chart Studies: Subgraphs Tab >> Draw Style

And for the greatest efficiency, set the Number of Bars to Display Input with the Current Price Line Study to 1.
