looking for a way to code a horizontal line to update in real time to reflect current price. I remember finding this in many other platforms; however, currently in NT7 and miss it.

any help is appreciated!

I wrote this a while ago. It doesn't do it in realtime though. If you draw,move a existing or remove a horizontal line press F5 to reload the script and the prices will update. It's F6 to draw a line and then F5 to display the price on the chart.

This one works in real time and it also plots current price.

In the meantime I have found a solution directly from NinjaTrader:

Here is the video that explains how to do it: https://screencast.com/t/cUsfvkmqVBBo

This works also in NT8.

Best regards
