    Plotting not in panel 1 but want to BarColor panel 1

    I have an indicator that plots in a secondary panel (not panel 1). I Wanted to change the price action BarColor in Panel1. Can I do that?

    I tried this but it didn't work:
    Overlay = true;
    DrawOnPricePanel = true;
    BarColor = PlotColors[0][0];
    Overlay = false;
    DrawOnPricePanel = false;

    I can use backcolorall but that is not really what I wanted.

    I think the issue is: BarColor = PlotColors[0][0]; Normally one is assigning a color to PlotColor. Try, for testing purposes, BarColor = Color.Blue; to see if that works.

      I had tried that but , it just changed the bar color in the same panel as the indicator. I was trying to set the price action bar color the same as my plot.

        Would this be on a MultiSeries chart then ct? As this simple example works well for me with the indicator plot not being in Panel1 but BarColoring to the price panel.

        Plot0.Set(SMA(20)[0]);

        if (Rising(Plot0))
        {
        PlotColors[0][0] = Color.Blue;
        BarColor = Color.Blue;
        }

        else if (Falling(Plot0))
        {
        PlotColors[0][0] = Color.Red;
        BarColor = Color.Red;
        }

        else
        {
        PlotColors[0][0] = Color.DarkGray;
        BarColor = Color.DarkGray;
        }

          Yes it is a multi series but the barcolor fires on barsarray[0] the chart time frame.

            Correct ct, that's what I would expect in this case. Would unfortunately not be aware of a workaround.
