Horizontal Price Line extended right; proper class?
Good afternoon,
I have been using the Draw. class to produce horizontal lines at my desired prices.
While this is visually appealing and fairly resource efficient, this is not quite correct. The lines should not extend backwards before the OnBarUpdate() on which they are produced yet by default it seems that the horizontal line does so without a bool option to extend lines into the past which could skew hindsight biases...
I need the line to only extend right and I would prefer not to have to specify the exact number of bars as that shouldn't be required.
Should I use another class and simply specify the same y- value twice to make the line straight?
Also whichever class you recommend, I also need the line to be about 50% transparent and the last C# method I tried to define the brush caused errors.

I did my homework before bothering you but my first thoughts were quite wrong.
If you have any insights or can point me in the correct direction I would be grateful as always.

Code:
// Draw horizontal line
Draw.HorizontalLine(this,
"SignificantLevel_" + CurrentBar.ToString(),
significantLevel,
Brushes.RoyalBlue,
DashStyleHelper.Solid,
3);​
