Is there a way to set the BackColor for a just completed bar.

[shawnj]

It looks like the BackColor property only applies to the current bar. Is this correct?

If I have an indicator with CalculateOnBarClose=false and I'm using FirstTickOfBar to do the bar-by-bar logic part of my indicator, I don't see a way to finalize the background color for the just completed bar.

If my logic needs to see the completed bar before it decides what color to set the background, how can I do this? With the various Draw objects, in FirstTickOfBar, I can just offset back 1 bar to draw something on the just completed bar.

thanks,

Shawnj, for NT7 you could use the BackColorSeries to adjust the color of the previous bar as it's complete.
