1. Vertical Line

   what is the best way to draw a vertical line on price? lets say at a given time... like 8AM CST... and I mean doing so automatically via a custom indicator, not via messing around with my page or instrument sessions.

2. Preventing impossible trades in backtesting

   I have some strategies that frequently trade on the same bar. Most of these trades are fine, but in back-testing, I have reason to believe that some small number of them are trading in an impossible order. For instance, in a long trade, the price might enter the bar at an intermediate value, fall to the low that meets my sell condition, rise to a high that meets my buy condition, and then exit to the next bar. In back-testing, this would show up as a completed trade, since both my sell and my buy condition are met within the bar. Is there a way of ruling out such impossible trades when back-testing?

   At first I thought that the HiLo1 function solved the problem, but it will reject single-bar trades even where the trade can be completed. For example, in the trade described above, if the price rises from the low to the high that triggers a buy, and then falls back down to the low that triggers the sale, conditioning the sale on high before low with HiLo1 would block the sale.

   Is there a way to insist that sales come after buys on within-bar long positions, or before them on within-bad long positions?

   I'm working an normal outright order in the exchange traded spread and one in my CQG spreader. I would like to set it, so the first fill cancel the other. Is that possible?

6. Price levels/areas from CSV file

   Hello, need help creating a study that gets a list of price levels from a CSV file (or online google sheet file) and plots them on the chart, this way I don't need to do plot all my price lines daily.

   Plotting price areas (between two price levels) would also be a plus.

   Thanks

7. OCO bracket created on two existing orders

   Let's suppose the trader already placed the two dis-joint orders such as a BUY limit @ 90 and a BUY stop @ 110. Bid/ask is at 99/100.
   Is it possible to join together these two orders into one logic OCO after they are already placed on the DOMTrader as described above?

8. Limit Order Above or Below the Market

   Hello,
   Would it be possible to code an algo or have the ability to set a limit order at a certain price once that price point is crossed? For example the market is at 2654 currently i would like to have a buy limit at 2654 but only if price hits 2654.25. Is there a way to automate this so i can just have orders sitting in the queue that will turn to limit orders once a line is crossed.
   Thanks.

    Hi guys,
