Andrew's Pitchfork
The Andrew's Pitchfork is drawn between three points first point is the middle point of stocks price, the next is the upper point of stocks price and the third is the lower point of stocks price. This draws three parallel lines that form a channel. Stocks Price should stocks trend within this channel, if stocks price moves outside of this channel like in the stocks example illustrated and explained below the trade should be closed.

Cycle Lines
Cycle lines are vertical lines drawn at an equal distance representing market cycles. To draw these lines a stocks trader selects one continuous stocks trend and draws a line between the high and low of the stocks trend and then this MT4 stocks indicator automatically plots the cycle line, these lines represent market cycles.

Text and Text Labels on MetaTrader 4
From the above example the buy is a text and the sell is a text label, both are not much different only that the text will move with the chart, while the text label is fixed at one point and will not move with the chart.
