Adding a highlighted region to an indicator in the lower indicator panel

[laoshr]

Hey Jesse,
I reset the indicator and was looking to add a way to adjust the levels if needed and once I did that it plotted. Not sure why but it is now plotting on the chart.
Thank you for all your direction. I couldn't have done it without your help.
Thanks again.

Hey Jesse,
Thanks again for all your help.

I'm getting a "Statement Expected" error on the first line after the OnBarUpdate.
The indicator compiles and it loads correctly and functions correctly on the chart but not sure how to fix the Statement Expected error.
Do you have any ideas?
Thanks again.

protected override void OnBarUpdate()
{



double amountUp = 0;
double amountDown = 0;
double rmi = 0;

if (CurrentBar ==0)
{

Draw.RegionHighlightY(this,"tag1", false, uppertz, lowertz, TzColor,TzColor, tzopacity );
avgUp[0] = 0;
avgDown[0] = 0;

return;

}

if (CurrentBar < (Period + shift))
{
return;
}
else if (CurrentBar == (Period + shift))
{
double sumUp = 0;
double sumDown = 0;

for (int barsAgo = 0; barsAgo < Period; barsAgo++)
{
amountUp = Input[barsAgo] - Input[barsAgo + shift];
if (amountUp >= 0)
{
amountDown = 0;
}
else
{
amountDown = -amountUp;
amountUp = 0;
}
sumUp = sumUp + amountUp;
sumDown = sumDown + amountDown;
}
avgUp[0] = sumUp / Period;
avgDown[0] = sumDown / Period;
}
else
{
amountUp = Input[0] - Input[shift];
if (amountUp >= 0)
{
amountDown = 0;
}
else
{
amountDown = -amountUp;
amountUp = 0;
}
avgUp[0] = (avgUp[1] * (Period - 1) + amountUp) / Period;
avgDown[0] = (avgDown[1] * (Period - 1) + amountDown) / Period;
}

if ((avgUp[0] + avgDown[0]) != 0)
{
rmi = 100 * avgUp[0] / (avgUp[0] + avgDown[0]);
}

else rmi = 0;


Value[0] = rmi;

Hello laoshr,

Are you using the NinjaScript editor to edit the file? I have seen that type of situation where it compiles but still displays an error in the editor when alternate text editors are used which do not correctly work with C# files. That generally happens when extra characters like incorrect line endings are added. That could also happen if you are copying and pasting code from an external source.

Jesse,
Good morning. Yes, I'm using the NT editor. I will take a look at those things you stated and see if I can find anything that is out of place or incorrect.
Thanks again.

Hello laoshr,

If you can't find anything specific out of place one solution would be to create a new empty indicator and then move the code over 1 line at a time to avoid any misplaced formatting characters. You would have to first exclude the original indicator from compilation so when you compile the new script you can check if you copied over the part with the problem.

Thanks, Jesse. I will try copying the code over and see what I get.
Again, thank you for your time.
