Now i want to colorize the Candles of the chart depending on the indicator value.
Do you really want to colorize candles? Or do you want to colorize the histogram? I guess the histogram.
What is your goal? How many colors should have your histogram? I guess you want to have an indicator that has three colors. Basic color if the sum is between 100 and -100, another color if the sum is greater than 100 and another color if the sum is less than -100. Am I right? If you confirm that, I can help you with it.

Hello Petr Nosek,
No i didnt want to colorize the candles directly. I wanted to plot a candle above the original chart, with these candles colorized. However i could solve the problem and its working now. Im now just having a small issie since i want to plot the candles and the histogram of the indicator simultaneously.
Can you use #indicator chart window and #indicator seperate window both at the same time?
Cheers akuh

No, you can't.

The easiest way is using two indicators. Another way is using a histogram in the separate window and objects to draw candles but this way isn't trivial.

Hello MQL4/5 Community,
I have a question regarding a function i want to build into my custom indicator "my indicator". So basically my indicator cointains multiple indicators and summarizes them into the buffer sum[i]
which is then visualized into a Histogram, working well. Now i want to colorize the Candles of the chart depending on the indicator value. Therefore i initialize the bar Bodies as following:
and finally plot them using the following code:
I cant figure out why its not working. I have to admit i tried to adapt this concept from another indicator " rsi chart bars". THe concept there is a bit different but i dont know where my adoption failed. Can someone help me with this issue ?
I copied both indicator..my custom indicator and the indicator i took the concept from, in the attachemt.
Best regards and thanks in adavance!
