Adding horizontal lines without changing scale

[jeremy1338]

I'm trying to create a basic indicator in ThinkScript that automatically plots horizontal lines based on Fib retracements from different timeframes for SPX. However, when I add lines that are outside of a timeframe (such as 1D), the scale of the chart gets messed up so that ToS shows every line it's plotting. Is there something simple I can add to my code so that it only shows the price range that would typically be visible in a given timeframe, without warping it to display every line?

Here is a sample of the code, it's all basically the same format with lines ranging from 2191 to 4813:

plot Fire1year1 = 3636;
Fire1year1.AssignValueColor(color.red);
Fire1year1.SetLineWeight(3);

i think i understand.
you don't want lines to draw when they are far away from the candles.


here is an example study to look at
it finds the highest and lowest $ on a chart.
then adds in a % factor to extend the vertical range,
if a price level is within the extended range, the line is drawn

# disable_lines_far_away_0

def na = double.nan;

def top2 = highestall(high);
def bot2 = lowestall(low);
def rng2 = top2 - bot2;
addlabel(1, "lowest " + bot2, color.yellow);
addlabel(1, "highest " + top2, color.yellow);


input range_exp_percent = 99;
def top = top2 + (rng2 * (range_exp_percent/2) / 100);
def bot = bot2 - (rng2 * (range_exp_percent/2) / 100);

addlabel(1, " " , color.black);
addlabel(1, "adjusted lower limit " + bot, color.yellow);
addlabel(1, "adjusted upper limit " + top, color.yellow);


input show_all_lines = yes;

input x1 = 50;
plot p1 = if show_all_lines or between(x1, bot, top) then x1 else na;
p1.AssignValueColor(color.red);
p1.SetLineWeight(3);

input x2 = 74;
plot p2 = if show_all_lines or between(x2, bot, top) then x2 else na;
p2.AssignValueColor(color.red);
p2.SetLineWeight(3);

input x3 = 100;
plot p3 = if show_all_lines or between(x3, bot, top) then x3 else na;
p3.AssignValueColor(color.red);
p3.SetLineWeight(3);

input x4 = 125;
plot p4 = if show_all_lines or between(x4, bot, top) then x4 else na;
p4.AssignValueColor(color.red);
p4.SetLineWeight(3);
