How to Limit Number of Lines Displayed by This Indicator?

[grrbear]

hi i use this simple vertical line indicator to mark ny open and close times but i don't want an infinite number of lines on the chart, rather only have 3 or 4 lines at any given time. what can be added to the code to allow me to choose how many lines will be shown? thanks

Will be drawn four pairs of lines. The number of pairs of lines = 4.

You can determine the time - in the indicator settings.

thanks again. it was showing 10 lines when both open and close were used, i'm guessing 8 plus 2. i changed this line of code from 8 to 2 and now it shows 4 lines(2 + 2):

if(count_lines>2)  // (the number of pairs of lines)*2

the problem now is when i change to lower time frames there are too many lines again, until i change time frames again. this would require me to change the time frame twice in order to get rid of the extra lines each time
