You can draw your lines using FOUR different methods:
a) PlotGrid - this function allows to plot horizontal
grid line at any leve (the easiest method)
Plot( C, "Price", colorBlack, styleCandle );
PlotGrid( LastValue( Close ), colorRed ); // this example plots horizontal
line at the value of last close
b) Plot - using regular Plot you are able to plot any
line including horizontal lines:
Plot( C, "Price", colorBlack, styleCandle );
Plot( LastValue( C ), "LastClose", colorRed ); // this example plots horizontal line at the value of last close
c) you can draw trendlines (not only horizonal) using combination of Plot and
LineArray:
d) you can draw ANYTHING you can imagine, using low
level gfx:

[amibroker] Question for Tomasz?
Tomasz,
Are the properties that define the
drawing tools somewhere in an AFL code? In other words I want to be able to
create a horizontal trend line thru AFL
code and be able to control its behavior in my code.
The goal is trading from price chart by
creating horizontal trend lines that would trigger entries, set stops and
targets, with a click of a button I want
to place 3 or more trend lines in price pane and then be able to adjust
there location, once set then arm them
and when price crosses orders are sent out.
I understand that I could use the
horizontal trend line drawing tool to create 3 trend lines then go to
properties
and set the study ID of each line. But I
want to automate the process thru AFL.
Thanks for your input.
