How do you draw a short "Trend Line" on MT4 ?

I am watching some tutitorials on using trend lines. There are always these short little lines used to show resistance and support.

as shown here.

WHen I try to draw a trend line on MT4 it always covers the whole screen from east to west.

Is there anyway to draw a short trend line?

Thanks for your help.

Doubleclick the trendline to put it in edit mode. When in edit mode, right click the line and from the dropdown menu select "Trendline Properties" (first option).

You should get a popup form with three tabs, select the tab named "Parameter". Uncheck the box labeled "ray".

Big help. Thanks.

Awesome! JUST What I was looking for, thanks.

I have wondered how that was done for a long time. Thanks!

look for a thread called 'Crayon Trend Lines" Read the documentation at the end of the mq4 file for how to use it


Below is an old screen shot of the indicator
