    Changing bar color in strategies

    I use Strategy Builder to have my strategies change a bar color on the signal bar, so I can see where it is. The problem is, the strategy continues to color bars while the strategy is working. This makes it impossible to tell bear bars from bull bars. Using other drawing objects on the chart would clutter up the chart. Is there any way to have only a signal bar colored, and allow the other bars to show as either red or green?

    Hello Bionian,

    Thanks for your post.

    You may want to use instead the action to set the candle outline color. Less obtrusive but I find the need then to set the candle outline (through the data series) to a thickness of 2.
    A more obvious would be to Set the background color but in this you would want to find a very light color so it it not visually too much. Another option would be to draw a vertical line, somewhat thinner but also more obvious (relative to searching for the conditions).
