Hi,

Is it possible to color my custom metric negatives values with red like is done for the builtin metrics?

Hello tolisss,

Thank you for your note.

Would you pleave provide a screen shot of what metric you are referring to?

I look forward to your reply.

sure, these are custom developed metrics and as I plan to develop more I would like to know if there is a way to categorized them somehow

[tolisss]

as you can see it doesn't work even for the buildin Sample Cum Profit,

Hello tolisss,

In the NinjaScript Editor, Under Market Analyzer Columns, I would suggest opening PositionSize and scrolling to the end of the file and looking under Miscellaneous>public override string format. You could also look at Unrealized ProfitLoss under Market Analyzer Columns.

Also please see the following link to our helpguide,

Alan, the screenshot I sent you is from Strategy Analyzer and I am working with a Performance metric descendant as such there is no BackColor property to change. So is there another way?

Hello tolisss,

Thank you for your patience.

This appears to be a bug for which I submitted a bug report to development.

Thank you for reporting this.
