OHLC Studies - Want Them to extend ALL THE WAY to the right of chart

I have numerous OHLC and other "line" type studies on my TPO charts. Some of these are for the current day, while others are levels for prior days (for example; T+2 OHLC, prior week high/low, etc.)

Sometimes they extend all the way to the Y axis label and sometimes they don't. I haven't been able to determine any rhyme nor reason for it. Also, they all have Name labels. When they do extend all the way, the name label appears. When they don't extend all the way, the name label is not visible. So for example, I may just have a line several days back with no label, and not anchored to the Y axis and just hanging out in the middle of nowhere.

I want all lines to extend all the way to the right side of the chart, and name labels visible at all times.

Is there some way to consistently make these studies behave the way I want??

See attached. The red arrows highlight troublesome lines.

If you are using the Daily OHLC or the Period OHLC, then those studies do not extend the lines beyond the time frame that they are drawn on. Also, only the lines for the most recent time period will have their labels displayed. Additionally, the Study/Price Overlay study (which you need to be using to overlay the OHLC studies onto the TPO chart) only has the capability of displaying already extended lines, which those other studies do not.

Therefore, in this particular case, it appears that what you are wanting to do is not directly supported and would require a custom study. Refer to the information here:

Hi John and Sierra Chart Engineering,

Also, only the lines for the most recent time period will have their labels displayed

Would you please consider adding an option to show labels in all periods covered by the OHLC Bars study?

No this is not reasonably possible to do. It is not something we would even consider. Subgraph lines only have one set of labels.
