Post From: Bug in Trendline Redraw to Another Chart

The documentation says:
When Ray drawings and other types of extending drawings, extend to the right, the price level the Ray is at on the right side of the chart can change as new data is added or when the timeframe per bar changes. Therefore, the Ray will not always intersect the same chart values on the right side. The reason for this is the Ray endpoint value can ascend or descend because the line is sloping and as it extends, the value that it intersects changes.

The above also applies to when a Chart Drawing which is copied to another chart since in most cases the other chart will have a different timeframe per bar and therefore a different number of bars. This is especially true with variable timeframe bars because with a sloping line, the level where it will intersect at a particular point in time, is going to be different compared to fixed time bars. This is all basic geometry.

There is no further information we can provide.
