Post From: Horizontal Lines study additional feature request

Given what you are stating, we would recommend NOT using the Horizontal Lines study, but instead using the Spreadsheet Study. The only downside in this case is that you will be limited to a total of 30 lines - 30 for the SPX and 30 for ES, where the ES lines are offset by the amount you specify.

So you would set the Input for "Number of Formula Columns" to be "60". Then columns K through AN would be where you would enter the levels determined for the SPX. Then columns AM through BR would be for the offset lines that you would copy to the ES chart.

You could put your "offset" value in cell J3.

Then set the "Study/Price Overlay" to only display the lines for columns AM through BR. Each day you would update your lines in columns K through AN for the given levels, setting any column that does not have a line to be blank. This would reflect in the offset columns and hence to your ES chart.

We do understand why you would want to have an offset in the Horizontal Lines study as well. The above is a workaround that we think would be easier than the horizontal lines study actually.

We have set this as a Feature Request to add an offset item to the "Horizontal Lines" study that will add the amount to the entered values to give you the result in the actual subgraphs for that study. But this would mean that you would not have a way to view the original values as lines anywhere.
