I would like to display a vertical line on the chart for the Ex dividend date for all securiteis. I tried this [target=Price] While this compiles - when I try to add this as an indicator, it comes up with an error message. No doubt I am doing it wrong. I suspect that I am mixing two scales - price and time, and that this method is not possible. Any ideas how i can do this?

You can achieve this with:
[target=Price; name=ExDate] [linestyle=marker; marker=type1] security.ExDate<=now and not hist(security.ExDate<=now,1); A few notes:

That is excellent. The verticalmarker linestyle will be better, but that suits me just fine for now. Thanks. |

You might find this helpful as well. It'll display the date of the ExDate at the end of the chart.
[target=Price] [linestyle=text] [textalign=Above,Right] "Ex:" + DayOfMonth(Security.ExDate) + "/" + Month(Security.ExDate) + "/" + Year(Security.ExDate); if(barnumber=lastvalue(barnumber),hhv(H,5),undefined); |
