Hi, I was wondring if anyone could help me figuring out how you draw a horizontal line insted of placing a position. I would like to know this so i can see if my robot does what i want it to.

Thanks

I got it to work when i started the robut using the code below, but I still can get it to work when backtesting, is it not supported?

double y = Symbol.Bid;
ChartObjects.DrawHorizontalLine("hLine", y,         
       Colors.Yellow, 2, LineStyle.Lines);

Drawing is not supported in backtesting.
