When ever I update the symbol on rollover for a futures contract I have to redraw all my horizontal lines that I have on the chart. How do I update the futures contract symbol without losing my lines on my chart?

When you select the option to rollover, or select "Chart >> Perform Futures Symbol Rollover", you have the option on the window that comes up for "Also Rollover Chart Drawing Symbols", make sure that is enabled before doing the rollover. Refer to Step #3 of the following:
Changing to a New Futures Contract Month: Changing to a New Futures Contract Month

If you forget to do that, then you can select the option for "Chart >> Update Chart Drawings to Current Symbol", or you can display the chart drawings for different symbols. Refer to the following:
Changing to a New Futures Contract Month: Allowing Lines and Other Chart Drawings From Other Contract Months to Appear on the Current Contract
