Hey guys/gals, does anyone know if the default TPO study can be edited so that when the profile is displayed on extension the POC and the VAhigh/VAlow will extend their lines to the left..? I'd like for that to be the case so those lines will be dynamic instead of me haveing to snap a line on the chart and adjust it manually throughout the day. Thanks!

Choose yes at the input extendlines_across_chart to extend the expansion lines to the left.

Solution
Also, I think I see what you were trying to tell me. I'm not asking about extending a line I place on the chart. I'm asking about the study itself extending it's own POC and VAhigh/VAlow lines to the left when you enable the study to be displayed on expansion.

The code in the study in the link above https://usethinkscript.com/threads/tpoprofile-study-edit.12718/post-108341 automatically extends the poc, vah and val lines. Those are not manually extended lines. The TOS study does not have an option to extend the lines, which is why I needed to add that capability to the original TOS study.
