  Hi there,

   

  Any way to change the background colour to display horizontal instead of vertical?

   

  Thanks

  No, as the background colour is set for each bar, so it’s plotted only vertically, as bars have just a fixed horizontal span (the TF).

  @ZeroCafeine

  that’s a very interesting solution, 1 single (or more, to have separate price level highlighted horizontally) rectangle from BarIndex 0 to the current one.

  If you want to set the background horizontally and extend it to the infinite on the right, you use a DATETOBARINDEX with a date in the future: (example to draw the rectangle until the 1st January 2100).

  defparam drawonlastbaronly=true drawrectangle(0,highest[10](high),datetobarindex(21000101),lowest[10](low)) coloured("crimson",150) bordercolor("crimson",0) return

  1 2 3 4 5

  defparam drawonlastbaronly=true   drawrectangle(0,highest[10](high),datetobarindex(21000101),lowest[10](low)) coloured("crimson",150) bordercolor("crimson",0)   return
