If this is a line chart or a column chart, you could just add another data
series and plot that series as line (in case of a column chart, select the
"plot data as line" checkbox on the appearance tab). Set the data value
expression a parameter-dependent value, e.g. =Parameters!Threshold.Value and
set the BorderColor property
accordingly.

You could also do it by using expressions. Attached a sample report at the
bottom of this posting which has a dynamic target line in the chart.
