"Help me add more levels to this indicator."

[mysticsoul]

The indicator below draws 5 horizontal lines (the number of pips between them defined by the user) both below and above the price level at a specific time. Help me add more horizontal lines, which should be user-defined.

• Usually people who can't code don't receive free help on this forum.
• If you show your attempts and describe your problem clearly, you will most probably receive an answer from the community. Use the CODE button (Alt-S) when inserting code.
• To learn MQL programming, you can research the many available Articles on the subject, or examples in the Codebase, as well as reference the online Documentation.
  
• If you do not want to learn to code, that is not a problem. You can either look at the Codebase if something free already exists, or in the Market for paid products (also sometimes free). However, recommendations or suggestions for Market products are not allowed on the forum, so you will have to do your own research.
  
• Finally, you also have the option to hire a programmer in the Freelance section.
