Hi,

Struggling with Time line study. If in chart settings i put start session time at 8:25, timeframe is 10 min (so bar at 8h25, 8H35...). When using the time line studie to draw a line at 8h30 matching method containing the study always draw a line at the bar starting at 8h35 while i would assume it indicates the 8h25 10 min bar. If i switch to 15 min it indicates the 8h40 bar.

What am i missing here ?

The best you can do is set the Matching Method to Nearest and if this does not give you what you want, then what you want to do is not possible to do with the study.

After looking into this further, we did find some issues in the code related to the display of the line when using Containing matching method, along with few other minor issues. These have been fixed and will be in the next Pre-Release (v 2786).
