Hello Sergio66,

I will forward your suggestion to my superiors to include it in our tracking system for possible future enhancements. Once they respond back with an ID#, I will let you know.

Thank you for your feedback.

Hello Sergio66,

Your suggestion to configure the candle outline for up and down bars seperate has been assigned with ID 973.

Sergio66,

Maybe this is what your image is from, but you know you can do this with a custom indicator, right? The only difference is that it colors the wicks too, not just the outlines. NT doesn't have a separate setting for the wicks.

You simply create an indicator and in the OnBarUpdate method you set CandleOutlineColor to whatever you want. Something like this:

protected override void OnBarUpdate()
        {
            if (Close[0]>Open[0])
                CandleOutlineColor = Color.Lime;
            if (Close[0]<Open[0])
                CandleOutlineColor = Color.OrangeRed;
            if (Close[0]==Open[0])
                CandleOutlineColor = Color.White;
        }

Neal, I am not familiar with Ninja script

TIA

Indicator attached. Please note that this is a very simple no-frills candle coloring indicator. It could have many many improvements, but it serves my purposes and that's why I wrote it.
