I wrote a pinescript about vertical line for each specific date using histogram.

PineScript

//@version=4
study("Plot vertical line with date", overlay=true)
plot((time == timestamp("GMT+0", 2021,11,11,0,0)) ? 100000 : na, color = color.rgb(255, 0, 0, 22), linewidth = 1, title = "Happy 11:11", style =  plot.style_histogram)
plot((time == timestamp("GMT+0", 2022,1,1,0,0)) ? 100000 : na, color = color.rgb(255, 0, 0, 22), linewidth = 1, title = "Happy New Year 2022", style =  plot.style_histogram)

Problem

When I set future date (1 January 2022) with plot function, the pinescript run successfully but doesn't show in the chart.

You can draw vertical lines in the future using line.new(). This script also allows you to change the date in the script's inputs:

//@version=4
study("Plot vertical line with date", overlay=true)
t1 = input(timestamp("2021-11-23T00:00:00+00:00"), "Date", type = input.time)
if barstate.islast
    line.new(t1, 0, t1, 1, xloc = xloc.bar_time, extend = extend.both)

You can't plot in the future, you'll need to use the offset argument as a workaround.
