Thread: Vertical Line Counting question

How would I go about counting the amount of Vertical Lines one hour both sides of current time, without specifying the exact names of the objects?
thanks,
Mark.

If it was not clear what this was for, I wanted to use the news calendar indior from here to put lines on the chart, then use this at an EA to filter trades about news, so I imagine that a few people will find this helpful

Mark-
That is a way of doing this. Contemplating no object can be created with no exceptional name its then a matter of getting the objects time worth and the ascertain where it is regarding the current hour.
Inserted Code int CurrentHour=10; for(int I=0; ilt;24; I ) int before=0; int after=0; for(int cnt=1;cntlt;ObjectsTotal();cnt ) string name = ObjectName(cnt); int ThisHr = TimeHour(ObjectGet(name, OBJPROP_TIME1)); if(ThisHr lt; CurrentHour) earlier ; else if(ThisHr gt; CurrentHour) after ; Print(Current Hour: CurrentHour ObjectsTotal() objects complete - earlier before after later );
