Default Price marker line

Is it possible to have a horizontal line across the chart that follows the price marker showing current price?

Unfortunately this is not supported by default. However you can create a custom indicator that can plot such a line. More information can be found at the link below.

It would be really nice to have this option.

Often with numerous indicators plotting on the price axis it can become crowded and difficult to determine the actual price. Having the option of a line similar to the chart trader for the price would be helpful.

It would also be nice to have the position line in automated strategies as well. Why limit a good thing to only one part of the program?

Nothing special, but gets the job done (I hope).

Hi Elliott,

I have forwarded your suggestion to be able to add a line to price markers by default to our development team to ask them if they can add this to the list of future considerations for the software.

Thank you for your feedback and creating the custom indicator!
