Yes. Here is the standard candle coloring for up/down colors:
Plot( Close, "Price", colorBlack, styleCandle );
What I am doing is this:
myCandleColors = [formula to determine color for each candle];
Plot( Close, "Price", myCandleColors, styleCandle);
This works as far as coloring the candles but you'll get the entire
candle colored (wick, body and body outline). What I want is for the
wick and body outline to remain colorBlack, but have the body color
be the color specified in myCandleColors.
Tomasz, I tried all of the possible options in Amibroker to try to
make this happen and I cannot produce a chart where candle bodies can
vary in color but keep the wicks and body outlines black.
If you can produce this chart, please show me how to do it.
Thanks!
