Simple Paintbar Question

[toddaclark]

I'm new to ninja.

I want to create a paint bar in ninja which colors the bars above a 23 sma blue and bars below the 23 sma red? If this is simple, can someone share with me how to do this?

Thanks,
Todd

There are a couple of candle routines in that thread. You need to edit and test for the 23 EMA and color candles appropriately.

Are you sure that is the right thread? I don't see any candlestick scripts in that thread.

toddaclark,

What you want to do requires custom programming. It is a matter of making an indicator that paints your bars.

Is there a ninja support page or a place on the forums that I can learn how to create such an indicator?
