How to hide a line between two datapoints

  Hi,

  I have a simple code that draws a line at the market daily closing price (5pm EST), but I don’t know how to hide the oblique line that connects 2 consecutive daily closing prices.

  The code is:

  if Hour=22 then
  a=close
  endif
  return a

  Does anyone know how to hide the oblique that connects each “a” (see chart for more clarity)?

  Thanks

  You can’t, with RETURNed data.

  You have to draw those segments yourself using DRAWSEGMENT.

  I moved your topic to ProBuilder since it’s related to an indicator.

  Try this:

  if Hour=22 then a=close MyBar = barindex endif Drawsegment(MyBar,a,barindex,a) return

  1 2 3 4 5 6

  if Hour=22 then    a=close    MyBar = barindex endif Drawsegment(MyBar,a,barindex,a) return

  Only v11 allows to change it (while RETURNed data can always be customized with properties, even in v10.3), if you are using it you can replace line 5 with:

  Drawsegment(MyBar,a,barindex,a) coloured(0,128,0,255) STYLE(line,2)

  1	Drawsegment(MyBar,a,barindex,a) coloured(0,128,0,255) STYLE(line,2)

  In v10.3 you can only add COLOURED to change colour.
