Draw a line, session open minus 20 ticks

[suprsnipes]

Hi,

Could someone please help me. I would like to draw a line based on the session open minus 20 ticks, any advice is appreciated.

Thanks.

time - 20 ticks ? how do you calculate that?

CurrentDayOHL

My thoughts were to use the CurrentDayOHL indicator and 'editing' it so it calculates the open minus 20 points?

Is it not possible?

You could do something like this -

 
double myOffsetOpen = CurrentDayOHL().CurrentOpen[0] - 20 * TickSize;

I'm wondering where to put this line of code.

double myOffsetOpen = CurrentDayOHL().CurrentOpen[0] - 20 * TickSize;

I have tried placing it in the OnBarUpdate area, is this the correct place?

I understand it must be frustrating for you but I would appreciate any reply.

Regards,

I add that line into constant line indicator and save it to the new file. The nice thing is you can customize the line.
