Using trendline
06 Sep 2017, 06:24


Hi i am new to ctrader.

I need help on how to use the trend line to draw short horizontal lines

1.  How can i snap the trendline to the top or bottom of the candle ?

2.  What are those numbers on the trendline  Eg 23/0.0/0

3.   Can these numbers be switched off ?

thanks

Dear tradingpaonly,

See the answers to your questions below.

1) Dragging the trendline's start and end points near the top or bottom of a candle, the points will automatically snap to them.

2) The numbers are Distance in time / Distance in pips/ Angle (Degrees)

3) Yes they can. You can do this by right clicking on the line and unchecking Show Angle.

Best Regards,

cTrader Team

Hi tradingpaonly,

You can use the Horizontal Line from the Line Studies. See image below
