[amibroker] Re: How do I draw a horizontal line at a given price without using an array?

["foginthehills" <andrewdelin@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Bill, thanks this was very helpful.

How is it possible to replace the 50 in the last line with a single 
value (but not an array)? I want to be able to find a high value and 
then plot that value forward for 50 bars. I can't figure out how to 
get one value (such as a particular day's high) from an array and 
use it repeatedly in a single plot statement for 50 bars.

Any ideas? Thank you!
