Sure, no problem. I have attached it here.

Hello ScottieDog,

Thank you for your response.

Please try using BarColorSeries rather than BarColor: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h...olorseries.htm

Please let me know if this does not resolve the matter.

Thanks. Made the change but still the same issue, it did not fix it. I changed the code to the following::

if (direction == 1 && (Open[CurrentBar - index] > Close[CurrentBar - index]))

                        {                                

                                drawPen.Color = Color.Red ;

                                BarColorSeries[0] = Color.Red;

                                myTag += 1 ;

Hello ScottieDog,

Thank you for the update.

Going back to Chelsea's idea, have you attempted to Print() the data to the output window to verify that there are values historically?

You can find information on Print() at the following link: http://www.ninjatrader.com/support/h.../nt7/print.htm
The values will be sent to the Output Window (Tools --> Output Window).

That's right, it's an indicator applied to panel 2 of a chart. It plots bar paint historically inside panel 2 but does not on the candles in panel 1

You may have to show the code that you are using to do the coloring, and how you serialized those colors. It will be hard to figure this out in a vacuum, so to speak.

I showed the full cs file. Is there anything else I need to provide?

I don´t understand how to print the data. I read the link you showed me, I still don´t understand.

The indicator is storing the values historically, that´s for sure - I don´t understand why the price chart does not pick up what the indicator has stored, as it is the indicator that paints the bars in real-time.
