I'm trying to draw a horizontal line on my graph. It is associating to the grid value for the wrong indicator. How do I change which indicator it is attached to? Thank you in advance.

I am pretty sure the horizontal line drawing tool will always draw in the first scale in the pane (the indicator furthest to the left).

So if you want to get the horizontal line in one of the other panes in the same scale, you would need to move just that indicator to its own pane, add the horizontal line and then overlay the indicator back into its original pane.

The other option would be to not use the drawing tool. If you click on one of the indicators in the scale in which you wish to plot, you can select Horizontal Lines... instead of using the drawing tool. This will allow you to add the horizontal line into the correct scale directly, but it will be there for all symbols.

Thanks Bruce. But I dont want it on all my symbols. I've been tracking the behavior of an ETF, and noticed a pattern in volume at certain points. So I would like to tag only that ETF on that spacific indicator to continue to track my theory. I'd like to request the ability to choose which indicator the line is associated with.

Getting back to yur work around; So if I make a new pane with just that indicator and add the line... will it show up in the other pane I want it in too?  Then i can just delete the temp pane?

Well, I'll guess I can just give it a try when I am back by my own computer tomorrow.

No, you can't just add a temporary pane and delete it. You need to actually move the indicator to its own pane, add the horizontal line drawing tool, and then overlay it back it into the original pane.

Thank you for your suggestion.

That would explain why it wasnt working when I tried it that way. Thank you for taking the suggestion Bruce.
