I use Metastock 6.52 indicator builder to write my own formula which enables me to draw horizontal lines at various price levels. But as yet I cannot draw vertical lines at various dates. I wish to write a formula to plot lines at various periods from a particular date. Can anyone advise me if it is possible to use a metastock function to draw a vertical lines ?? Thanks... Chris.

I am pretty sure you cannot programatically place vertical lines, but what you can do is use an expert to place a symbol at the relevant places on the chart. If you are placing specific dates on the chart, such as 9/11/2002, save them in the templates you use. Hope this helps. wabbit :D

Also if you want to plot a vertical line every x amount of bars. Plot the following indicator as histgoram and overlay without scale on your chart For a vertical line every five days starting in 2005 : Year() = 2005 and Mod(Cum(1),5)=0 Patrick
