Horizontal reference line at signal marker

Hello,

Is it possible to automatically draw a reference line once I get a signal marker?
I know I can draw it with a CI but I have signal markers instead and not sure how to do it.
Basically I want to draw it once there is a signal and keep it until it gets hit in the future (preferably keep for only same session).

Extending Price of Signals

Yes,

You will use a custom indicator however, but the indicator will incorporate your signal.

So let's say you want to extend the high price of the bars where a signal is true.  The custom indicator syntax would be..

HI * (SIGNAL = 1)

You don't have to use the SIGNAL token if you haven't yet created your signal.  For instance, if I want to extend the high of up fractals...

HI * (FRACU = 1)

when you add the indicator to a chart, you have various options for extending naked values.  By multiplying the HI by a boolean condition of SIGNAL = 1 or FRACU = 1, it results in non-zero values (HI) only when the SIGNAL or FRACU is true (1).  And the resulting custom indicator in the chart will then only extend those non-zero values.

Thanks Chad.
Why does it also add that vertical line?

Custom Indicator Display

Set the custom indicator up to display dots like this and it will not connect those lines...
