Line joining Current and 10th candle

[[Deleted]]

Hello coders. Please help me understand how to draw a line joining the 10th candle close price with the last candle close price in an EA. Thank you in advance.

Your question is not entirely clear. Can you draw your question as a picture?

I saw a zigzag indicator and started working on a modified version. Say, instead of using a fractal zigzag lines, we use the 10th and previous candle close prices to draw the zig zag.

I'm still working it out. I still don't have a clear picture of it since I got stuck at the line. 

If the line has a positive gradient with a gradient filter as an external variable. That is a buy signal

If the current close is higher than the close ten candles ago, there is no way that the connecting line doesn't have a positive gradient, too. No need to draw a line, just compare the prices. If you insist on drawing a line, simply create an OBJ_TREND object.
