Hi Axle,
you have used AND for every month instead OR.
However it seems that setchartbackground doesn’t work on bar by
bar basis.
I have changed the code, see below.
function winterblock()
{
Winter = Month() == 1 OR Month() == 2 OR Month() == 3 OR Month()
== 11 OR Month() == 12;
return Winter;
}
Plot(1,"",IIf(winterblock(),colorYellow,colorRed),styleArea|styleOwnScale|styleNoTitle|styleNoLabel,0,1);
Regards

code. ANy

function winterblock()
{
Winter = Month() == 1 AND Month() == 2 AND
Month() == 3 AND Month()
