And how would you place text so that it appears on the left of the chart against a line and stays there when you scroll left to right? i.e. like Comment() but lower down. I've been playing around for some time and can't figure this out...

Help needed to position hoping someone might explain fixed chart position

Thanks. But this doesn't place the text against a line - it places it at a fixed point in the window. I need to have it showing at a particular price level in order to be adjacent to the line.
