The Vertical Reference Line is a drawing tool that can be used to draw labelled lines at any data/time in the chart. Click on the "Vertical Line" tool on the chart toolbar. Then position the mouse pointer at any time point in the chart window and click. While the vertical line tool is active, the cursor changes to a pencil. Click as many times as you like to add as many vertical reference lines as you wish. To turn off the vertical line tool, click on the "Vertical Line" tool on the chart toolbar again.
The Trendline Indicator is a tool for drawing lines from a starting price and time to another price and time in the chart. To draw a trend line, activate trend line drawing by depressing the Trend Line Button in the chart toolbar. The "button" will remain visually depressed to denote that trend line drawing mode has been selected. The cursor changes to a pencil. Position the mouse and press down to start the trend line.
For line graphs, the price used to draw the line may be the open, high, low, last, the median of high and low , or the median of high, low, and last. A continuous line graph is simply a line drawn between each of the price points for the selected price type. A connected line adds dots at each price point. Line graphs may be drawn with one of three line thicknesses and in a user specified color.
