Help modifying an Indicator

New comment
 

Hello all,

I could need some help with this modification. I am trying to change the OBJ_VLINE to a OBJ_TREND in order to stop it from drawing the line on the bottom indicator window and only drawing the line on the chart. But I am unsuccesful as my coding skills are basic at best.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

This is the Indicator, source is ForexFactory

Well, managed it on my own in the end. These are the changes I made:


if(ObjectFind("mVL"+ mTimes[j][i]) == -1)
                   ObjectCreate("mVL"+ mTimes[j][i], OBJ_TREND, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0);
                 ObjectSet("mVL"+ mTimes[j][i], OBJPROP_TIME1 , mTimes[j][i]);
                 ObjectSet("mVL"+ mTimes[j][i], OBJPROP_TIME2 , mTimes[j][i]);
                 ObjectSet("mVL"+ mTimes[j][i], OBJPROP_PRICE1 , 500000);
                 ObjectSet("mVL"+ mTimes[j][i], OBJPROP_PRICE2 , 0);
                 ObjectSet("mVL"+ mTimes[j][i], OBJPROP_COLOR , mCol);
                 ObjectSet("mVL"+ mTimes[j][i], OBJPROP_STYLE , mStyle);
                 ObjectSet("mVL"+ mTimes[j][i], OBJPROP_WIDTH, mWidth);
                 ObjectSet("mVL"+ mTimes[j][i], OBJPROP_BACK, true);


Works well so far
