RE: [amibroker] indicators with arrows - help

Jayson,

This is much closer to what I want.  If I change the 2's to 4's, 
that's what I had in mind.  Can you explain what the 30's are 
describing?  As a reference, I have default number of quotations per 
chart set at 210.

Now, I tried to retain my original bar coloring scheme, and add to 
it bars which would be colored blue if your conditions were true.  I 
got error messages all over the place.  Here's what I created:

Vol_Avg = Ref(MA(V,30),-1);

PlotColor= IIf(V > (4*Vol_Avg),colorBlue,IIf(C > O AND (C > Ref(C,-
1))),colorBrightGreen, IIf(C < O AND (C < Ref(C,-1))), colorRed, 
colorYellow);

X=Ref(HHV(V,30),-1);

PlotVol = IIf(V < (4*Vol_Avg),V,x);
 
Plot( PlotVol,"Volume", Plotcolor,styleHistogram|styleThick);
 
The problem is in the PlotColor= line I think.  I want the volume 
bars to be BrightGreen if the Closing Price is greater than the 
Opening price AND the Closing price is greater than the prior 
Closing price

I want the volume bars to be colored Red if the Closing Price is 
less than the Open price AND the Closing price is less than the 
prior Closing price.

I want the volume bars to be colored Blue if they are chopped off.

I want all other volume bars to be colored Yellow.

Is that possible?  That's what I was trying to tell it when I 
changed your PlotColor= line....

Thanks for your help.

Jim
