Some traders use a lot of static levels that are sometimes far from current price.
Other want to always be reminded of Big Round Numbers, or quarters, halfs, etc.
Some want a mix of both.
BigConstantLines will use a starting price value (CenterLineValue) and automatically create lines 16 levels above, and 16 levels below using the AddPointsValue increments. OR, just enter each level manually leaving the CenterLineValue and AddPointsValue properties blank/zero.
One can also autopopulate and then override any level with a manually entered price. This may be a S/R level, Pivot, All Time High/Low, whatever. The indi can be added more than once in case there are some numbers from say daily/weekly/month charts that are significantly out of the current trading range, but that you want on the chart if you get there, or if you just want more than 33 levels.
Some instruments tend to move in pretty reliable patterns, say 25 handles. Pick a starting price
for CenterLineValue and enter 25 in the AddPointsValue, voila.
Note: Line17 is the CenterLine, and cannot be manually overridden when using the autopopulate mode.
(This is hack of the standard Constant Lines indicator. It's prolly gonna make your machine explode, create a new COVID variant, cause constipation, and remove all hope for whirled peas. Use at your own risk.)
Update: I've received some good suggestions. However I don't plan to implement any new features or changes, it does a certain thing well. Perhaps others will take this and add features to it, go nuts!
More than one request was for line color/thickness control. For this I suggest you add the indi to a chart, make whatever changes you want, and then save the Default template for the indi. Your custom settings will forever be saved and used on any chart you add the indi to moving forward.
Enjoy!
