How to create different types of lines on chart?

[Lester Macena]

Hi,

Is it possible to create different types of lines on a chart? There is F6, but what if one wants lines different color or width?Is it possible to have short-cuts (hot-buttons) to create different types of lines?

Thanks,

Hello,*

Thank you for the note.*

To access a variety of different drawing objects available for your chart you may right-click within the chart to open a drop-down menu. Inside of this drop-down menu locate and select* "Drawing Tools".This will give you a list of many different line objects and other drawing objects available to you. Here you will be able to view the current hotkeys associated with each of these drawing objects.*

To edit these hotkeys*navigate back to your Control Center and select "Tools" > "HotKeys". Under Categories*have charting selected, scroll down within the right-hand section of the window until you see keys for "Drawing". Here you will be able to edit your Hotkeys for your drawing objects.**

Hi NinjaTrader_DeVant'e ,

Thank you for responding.

I see only one type of Horizontal Line (F6). Is it possible to create more than one type of horizontal lines?

Thanks,

Hello,*

Thank you for reaching out.*

There is only one type of Horizontal Line drawing object however, you are able to customize and edit it. With your horizontal line on the chart, left-click to select the line and then right-click to open a drop-down menu to select " Properties". This will open a Drawing Objects window that will allow you to edit the setting of this line. You may change the setting to create your custom lines and save them by selecting "Template" > "Save". Now for future lines, once you have placed them on your chart you may now right-click on the new line to access the properties and change the display template for each line.*

Please let me know If I may be of any more assistance.
