Drawing lines on a sub graph

Lines drawn on main graph and sub graphIn tutorial 26 I created an indicator that looked for divergence between price and a stochastic indicator. If divergence occurred a lines was drawn between the pivots in the price action on the main chart. Tutorial 26 recognized that the pivot points in price may not occur on the same bar as the pivot points occur on the stochastic.

This tutorial uses the base code developed in tutorial 26 to show how it is possible to draw lines on the sub graph.

To do this we need to modify the program slightly and follow a number of simple steps outlined in the video below.
