Hi there, 

Just draw the line at the specific price you want on each tick. If you use the same name for your line it will replace the previous one, making it dynamic.

There is example code in the documentation. Try doing this yourself and let us know where you have questions and what is blocking you to move further.

Hello,

You should call Chart.DrawHorizontalLine() inside Calculate() and use the current price (Symbol.Bid or Symbol.Ask) as reference. See below.

I hope it helps.

using cAlgo.API;

namespace cAlgo
{
    [Indicator(AccessRights = AccessRights.None)]
    public class dynamic_HLine : Indicator
    {
        protected override void Initialize()
        {
        }

        public override void Calculate(int index)
        {
            var distanceInPips = 200;
            var highPrice = Symbol.Bid + distanceInPips * Symbol.PipSize;
            var lowPrice = Symbol.Bid - distanceInPips * Symbol.PipSize;

            Chart.DrawHorizontalLine("horizontalLineAbove", highPrice, Color.Blue);
            Chart.DrawHorizontalLine("horizontalLineBelow", lowPrice, Color.Red);
        }
    }
}
