I would like a horizontal line plotted on my TPO charts at a certain time of day (17:00:00 London), that extends through the TPO chart until the beginning of the next session. I can't get the "Horizontal Line at Time" to work. Is there another way I can do this? Thank you.

You are going to have general issues with this, as the TPO chart does not have the times like a standard chart does. Still, the best way to try and do this is to have a separate chart for the same symbol with the Horizontal Line at Time study on it and setup as you want, then use the "Study/Price Overlay" to overlay that Horizontal Line at Time to the TPO chart. Refer to the following:

Thank you for the idea but I could not make it work. Do you think it will work but it's just my settings are that are prohibiting this line at time from showing on TPO chart?

It should work in terms of giving you the line at the level you want, but it will not work in terms of only showing the line for a certain period of time. The line will be shown across all days for which the study is calculating - but it is showing the particular level for each day that you want.

Again, what you are asking for is difficult due to the lack of specific time scale for the TPO charts.

I use Time Line Study for TPO or Time Range Highlight Study for Heiken Ashi Charts to draw vertical lines on the chart to highlight a time range. Try these 2 studies on the TPO chart.

Price appears vertically on a chart so I use horizontal lines to mark price levels. Time appears horizontally on a chart so I use vertical lines to mark a time range.
