I would like to place a line (representing the trade entry value) on a chart. The line is to start from a certain date (purchase date) and is to have a certain colour and line type.
I also want to place another indicator, a trailing stop loss, starting from the same date, but with a different colour and line type.
I have tried using barssince, fml and fmlvar indicators. No success but just feel I need a start or method to achieve this.
Not able to post code as not currently home.
This sort of relates to previous posts about lines starting on a defined date and colouring of multiple indicators in one formula.

The coloring would not be possible via formula, but you can use ValueWhen to start a value from a certain date, such as:
ValueWhen(1,Year() > 2015,170)
You can of course add additional criteria other than the Year() function but the main point is that the line (170) will begin from that point on the chart forward.
