Hello julifro,

I am not able to see the screenshot you have attached, it is very small.

What is the style you are trying to change?

Are you wanting to change the DashStyle?

Are you referring to the last two bar closes being above the ray?

Are you referring to the second point of the ray?

This can be done by adding another if statement.

if (Close[0] > Close[1] &&
Close[0] > Close[2] &&
Close[0] > Close[3] &&
Close[0] > Close[-1] &&
Close[0] > Close[-2] &&
Close[0] > Close[-3])
{
DrawTriangleDown(CurrentBar.ToString(), true, 0, High[0] + ((TickSize * 2) * 2), Color.Blue);

if (Close[0] > High[0] + ((TickSize * 2) * 2) && Close[1] > High[0] + ((TickSize * 2) * 2))
{
DrawRay("rayH", true, 1, High[0] + ((TickSize * 2) * 2), 0, High[0] + ((TickSize * 2) * 2), Color.Brown, DashStyle.Solid, 2);
}
else{
DrawRay("rayH", true, 1, High[0] + ((TickSize * 2) * 2), 0, High[0] + ((TickSize * 2) * 2), Color.Brown, DashStyle.Dash, 2);
}
//BarColor = Color.Blue;
}

Thanks for your reply.

I uploaded the image again

What I want is this

When the condition occurs

if (Close [0]> Close [1] &&
Close [0]> Close [2] &&
Close [0]> Close [3] &&
Close [0]> Close [-1] &&
Close [0]> Close [-2] &&
Close [0]> Close [-3])

one ray is drawn:

* Color.Brown, DashStyle.Solid, 2

if after drawing the ray Brown Solid 2 bar closes below the ray

Color.Blue ray changes, DashStyle.Dash, 2

Excuse my English. Thank You

Hello julifro,

I may not be understanding your inquiry correctly.

When you mention "if after drawing the ray Brown Solid 2 bar closes below the ray" are you wanting to change the ray to a dash if the bar closes below the ray?

If so, does the code I have suggested not work for you?

[julifro]

yes. that's what I want.

your code does not help me or I will not run

thank you very much

[julifro]

anyone can help me please? thank you very much

Hello julifro,

The code that I have suggested was to do this.

Have you attempted to implement this suggestion?

May I see the code you have written?

[julifro]

Thank you for your help.

Hello julifro,

Two issues.

One, you have the ray called again with the same tag name on line 66. This makes lines 56 through 63 completely ignored.

So that if statement on line 56, is not doing anything.

Then, on lines 84 and 87, you are reusing the same tag without incrementing it. This means that there will only be one brown line ever on the chart.

I ran this on the Market Replay to see if the condition on line is 82 is ever true, and I am not seeing that condition is ever true.
This:
Close[0] > High[0] + ((TickSize * 2) * 2) && Close[1] > High[0] + ((TickSize * 2) * 2)
is never true.

So that one brown line will always be dashed.

Add prints to your code to see when these conditions are true.
For example:
Print(Time[0]+" | Close[0]: "+Close[0]+" > High[0] + ((TickSize * 2) * 2): "+(High[0] + ((TickSize * 2) * 2))+" && Close[1]: "+Close[1]+" > High[0] + ((TickSize * 2) * 2): "+(High[0] + ((TickSize * 2) * 2)));

Add that print below the DrawTriangleUp on line 81.

What prints in the output window with this?

[koganam]

Close[0] > High[0] + ((TickSize * 2) * 2)

That expression can never, ever, be true. Nothing can ever close higher than its high: that is impossible in an absolute sense.

[julifro]

My bad English makes me not explain well.
This is the indicator

if(CurrentBar < 3)
return;
if (Close[0] > Close[1] &&
Close[0] > Close[2]&&
Close[0] > Close[3]&&


Close[0] > Close[-1]&&
Close[0] > Close[-2]&&
Close[0] > Close[-3])

{
DrawTriangleDown(CurrentBar.ToString(), true, 0, High[0]+((TickSize*2)*2), Color.Blue);

DrawRay("rayH"+CurrentBar,true, 1, High[0]+((TickSize*2)*2), 0, High[0]+((TickSize*2)*2),Color.Black,DashStyle.Dash,2);
I think it would

one ray under each triangle is drawn down.

Now I want each one of those ray style change when two bars close above each of the rays drawn above

I think it would

if Close [0] && Close [1]> Ray
ray changes of style.

but not I like to refer to each ray

Deputy indicator

Thank You

Hello julifro,

Close[-1], Close[-2], and Close[-3], don't exist. This means these will not return any values.

Just to confirm, the condition you are looking for is: if the close of the most recently closed bar is greater than the close prices of the previous 3 bars, then draw a triangle and a ray, is this correct?

What is the condition for the changing the ray from solid to dashed?

I ask because Close[0] > High[0] + ((TickSize * 2) * 2) will never be true.

[julifro]

do not.
no problem with the triangle and draw the line.
what I want is that after drawing the ray if two bars close up of the ray ray change from solid to dot.

Ray change style.

goodnight and thanks
