Draw Vertical Line to Future Time

[Panjianom Adi Pratomo]

I can draw a vertical line from past date into current date but how to draw a vertical line into future date?
I've been tried with this code but nothing happen:

extern int FutureBars=100;
extern int BarsLimit=1000;

for(int i=BarsLimit; i>=0; i--)
{
    datetime dailyTimefuture=Time[0]+FutureBars*Period()*60;

    MqlDateTime dt_structfuture;

    TimeToStruct(dailyTimefuture, dt_structfuture);
    
    if(dt_structfuture.day < 14) continue;
    if(dt_structfuture.day >= 14)
    {
            dt_structfuture.day = 14;
            dailyTimefuture = Time[iBarShift(_Symbol, PERIOD_CURRENT, StructToTime(dt_structfuture))];
    }

    string namefuture=TimeToStr(dailyTimefuture)+" Time_Vertical_Line_Future";

    if(ObjectFind(0,namefuture)<0)
    {
            if(!ObjectCreate(0,namefuture,OBJ_VLINE,0,dailyTimefuture,0))
            Print("Fail to draw the line ERROR CODE : ",GetLastError());
            ObjectSet(namefuture,OBJPROP_WIDTH,widthLine);
            ObjectSet(namefuture,OBJPROP_COLOR,colorLineQuarter);
            ObjectSet(namefuture,OBJPROP_BACK,true);
    }
}

Can someone suggest the changes?
Thanks for your help!

This's continue from this thread: https://www.mql5.com/en/forum/256040
From that thread it can draw vertical line from past date into current date but it can not draw to future date.

Like this.

#property strict
#property indicator_chart_window
#include <ChartObjects\ChartObjectsLines.mqh>
#include <Arrays\List.mqh>

input int InpNumBars=100;
CList lines;
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
int OnInit()
{
   for(int i=1;i<InpNumBars+1;i++)
   {
      CChartObjectVLine *line = new CChartObjectVLine();
      line.Create(
         ChartID(),                          //this chart
         "line_"+string(i),                  //unique name
         0,                                  //no sub-window
         Time[0] + i * PeriodSeconds(_Period)//time in the future
      );
      lines.Add(line);
   }
   return INIT_SUCCEEDED;
}
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
int start(){ return 0; }

Thank you nicholi shen, I will try it.

Like this.

Time[0] + i * PeriodSeconds(_Period)//time in the future

your line always "moving".
I don't know if that is OP intention?

OP needs to implement his own logic, I'm just here to demonstrate how to draw objects in the future.

Thank you Mohamad Zulhairi & Nicholi Shen for the information.
Btw I am open for another solution rather than my logic.

Here's the update code but still nothing happen.

extern int FutureBars=100;

for(int i=1; i<FutureBars+1; i++)
{
    datetime dailyTimefuture=iTime(Symbol(), PERIOD_D1, Time[0] + i * PeriodSeconds(_Period));

    MqlDateTime dt_structfuture;

    TimeToStruct(dailyTimefuture, dt_structfuture);
    
    if(dt_structfuture.day < 14) continue;
    if(dt_structfuture.day >= 14)
    {
            dt_structfuture.day = 14;
            dailyTimefuture = Time[iBarShift(_Symbol, PERIOD_CURRENT, StructToTime(dt_structfuture))];
    }

    string namefuture=TimeToStr(dailyTimefuture)+" Time_Vertical_Line_Future";

    if(ObjectFind(0,namefuture)<0)
    {
            if(!ObjectCreate(0,namefuture,OBJ_VLINE,0,dailyTimefuture,0))
            Print("Fail to draw the line ERROR CODE : ",GetLastError());
            ObjectSet(namefuture,OBJPROP_WIDTH,widthLine);
            ObjectSet(namefuture,OBJPROP_COLOR,colorLineQuarter);
            ObjectSet(namefuture,OBJPROP_BACK,true);
    }
}

The Time array only goes to the current bar. You need to specify the exact time in the future you want the line drawn. See my example above.
