Drawing HLine of specific candle
Yellowbeard1881:
Does anyone know how to draw a horizonal line from the open of a specific candle to the end of the day. For example, the open of the 2:00 am hourly candle. I know how to draw a line from the start of each day to the end. Just having difficulty figuring out how to start at a specific hour.
Thanks!
start_time=iTime(_Symbol, PERIOD_D1, 0)+2*3600; int bar_index=iBarShift(_Symbol, PERIOD_H1, start_time, false); double open=iOpen(_Symbol, PERIOD_H1, bar_index);
That's the second hour in todays date and you didn't handle 4066 errors.

You have the start time (the candle). Compute tomorrow's time. Draw a trendline between.Find bar of the same time one day ago - MQL4 programming forum #1 & #6 (2017)
I'm trying to draw a line, each day, from the open of the 2:00 am candle till the end of day. The platform that I have starts the day at 5:00 pm EST. No matter what I try, I can only get the line to start at 5:00 pm. Not 2:00 am. I've attached the code. Perhaps someone could show me what I'm doing wrong or what I'm missing? Thanks!
