Auto retracement / projection - single horizontal line for current value?

I don't wish to see the historical/past values for auto retracement/projection, just a horizontal line plotted at the current value. If I am displaying N+3 days of data on the chart and the time period unit in this study is N days, then the left hand side of the chart won't have accurate values, and I don't need to know what the values were N days ago, just today?

Is there a way to do this with the existing study, or should I set subgraph draw style to ignore and programatically reference the SG value from a custom horizontal line study?

Thank you, this works.
However, separately, I am getting incorrect values - this chart will illustrate.
I have retracements set to 30% and 70% of the 3 day range.
It seems to think the total range is the range of this current day. Not sure why this has happened.

You need to refer to the documentation for this study to understand what it does and understand the settings:

The screenshot does not mean anything to us. We do not know the Study Settings, cannot see all the chart data, and we do not know what you are expecting to see and why.

Actually we think we know what you are saying. A 3 Day time period not a trailing 3 Days. It is 3 Days from Sunday as a point of reference.

Apologies, here are the settings.
I have circled in purple what I believe the issue to be.
Period high and period low is set to todays range when I have asked for 3 days.
