    PaintBar Question

    Hi everyone,

    I'm trying to make a simple paintbar indicator for Ninja where it simply makes a candle green if the close is above previous high, red if below previous low, and neutral if neither above or below.

    Here's the code that just won't seem to work:

    Code:
        protected override void OnBarUpdate()
            {
                // Use this method for calculating your indicator values. Assign a value to each
                // plot below by replacing 'Close[0]' with your own formula.
                if( Close[0] > High[1] ) {
                    BarColor = Color.Green;
                } else if( Close[0] < Low[1] ) {
                    BarColor = Color.Red;
                } else if( (Close[0] < High[1]) && (Close[0] > Low[1]) ) {
                    BarColor = Color.Black;
                }
            }
    If I try to change the bar color according to a static number, i.e 'if( 1 < 2 )' then it will color the bars. It just won't seem to color the bars when I use Close[0], High[0], etc.

    I appreciate any help!
