Hi,

Is it possible to display the chart in OHLC Bars with up bars green and down bars red?

Many thanks

You can try the Custom PaintBar study.

Thanks for the tip. I've managed to do it in my evaluation copy of MC using:

Code: Select all

If Open>Close Then
PlotPaintBar(High,Low,Open,Close,"",Red);
If Open<Close Then
PlotPaintBar(High,Low,Open,Close,"",Green);
However, I don't appear to be able to get this code into MC DT?

Any ideas?

Many thanks.

That is the difference between "normal" MC version and the MC DT version.

MC DT has no PLEditor, meaning, you cannot import or write any easy languague study.

For that you need to buy the "normal" version.

Please see the comparison between versions:
