Tim,
Since you say that you are just using the charting aspect of AB, then
what purpose would auto trend lines have for you? You can draw them
as you go along just fine. Trend lines are subjective to some
degree. An algorithm can be generated in AFL to generate all trend
lines automatically, but you might not like the results (Take it from
an expert on the subject). Auto trend lines make sense when you are
trying to develop and backtest a trading system that uses trend lines.
There are many official enhancement requests for charting, but if you
have not kept your AB license up to date, you can not log in to see
their status or make new requests or add your support to existing
ones. That is the privilege of those continuing to support
AmiBroker's ongoing efforts to improve the software. In your case,
you will just have to wait and see what pops out in the releases.
Best
regards,
Dennis
