I often see short lines drawn on MT4 charts by people who post on this forum, but my toolbar does not have a function for drawing short lines, only long trendlines that run off the page. Does anyone know how I can draw short lines (+/- 1 or 2 inches).
Thanx

Hit your trend line box and draw a trend line. After you draw a trend line left click on the trend line go to trend line properties then hit the parameter box and there should be a box beside the word ray with a check in it. Click on the check in the box so the box is not checked. This will set your default for your trend line so you make them the length you want them to be when you draw them from point A to point B. Using the trend line like that you can draw your verticles and horizontal lines the length you want.

Ignored

Thanx Tom, you're a genius. I've had this issue for many, many months.
