Tomasz,
My original e-mail had to do with changing the background color
based on price being above or below a moving average. You provided
a solution for me (thanks!) and, even though I have 'Middle'
selected in the Grid Lines section, the original horizontal dotted
lines became covered by the alternating background coloring. Your
reply was:
"As of now, you would need to use Plot() function to plot additional
grid lines over multicolored background."
My question below now relates to how to use Plot() to get back the
original dotted lines (Amibroker knows y-axis prices it has
displayed and I didn't know how to find that out so that I could
redraw the lines). I'll include the original message and sample
code as an example.
--------------------------
Here is the code I'm using in the indicator. I have `Show Dates'
and `Middle' selected in the Grid Lines option section when I press
Ctrl-E to bring up the Indicator panel.
Plot(Close, "", colorBlack, styleCandle | styleNoLabel);
Plot(LinearReg(Avg, 25), "", colorBlue, styleLine | styleThick |
styleNoLabel);
Plot(EMA(Close, 34), "", colorYellow, styleLine | styleThick |
styleNoLabel);
// Comment this line out, you will have the default dotted lines
// across the y-axis prices. 'Middle' is checked in Grid Lines
section
Plot(1, "", IIf(Close > EMA(Close,34), colorCustom1, colorCustom3 ),
styleArea | styleOwnScale, 0, 1 );
