Can an EA draw lines on a chart?

[Nathan]

Does anyone know how I can code an EA to draw lines on a chart?

Thank you!

Use ObjectCreate and OBJ_HLINE or OBJ_VLINE as the object type. They can be used by anything be it a script, EA or indicator.

I am thinking along the lines of some code like this...

if ( "put my parameters" ) {

  {
     draw line code
  }}

 
     // idk, something simple :)
     // Thank you!

Thank you!

I will give it a shot!

I am researching the "object" documentation now!

Thank you for your post!
