If you have the Image Processing Toolbox, have a look at the edge() function. The associated demos will give you examples that you can adapt to your problem.

My job is to plot points across the edges of the image and join pair of points to form chords. then some features of the chord( length, orientation and normalized normals) are binned to a k- dimensional histogram( chordiogram).

Plotting is a graphical operation, but making measurements of chords is not. It's hard to understand what your goal is.
All the same, the output of the edge function would still seem a good place to start. What is wrong with it? Have you looked at the demos?
Here's a simple example of plotting the edge points, to get you started:
>> imshow(im);
>> e = edge(im, 'canny');
>> [y, x] = find(e);
>> imshow(im);
>> hold on; plot(x, y, '.'); hold off;
