Manipulation of Chart (Horizontal Line Tool) Through the API

Haven't yet looked in depth at the API, but I wanted to check before I waste a lot of time.

I trade exclusively thru the TPO profile. I mark frequent levels on the chart and carry them forward several days with a line I can easily reference. Let's say I want to set a level at the close of /ES, 2 days ago. This is a simple example but serves for the purpose of illustrating my question.

Can I determine the level of the T-2 close, and set a line through the API? There are 10-15 levels I keep track of, and for all three major indices, so it's getting to be a pain in the butt to do this every day. I'd like to do this using the API.

Is something like this even possible?

Or is there a way to do it without code? Perhaps a study?
