Yes, this is similar to what I did. The problem was that one color was
always plotting over another color at the 0 line. I ended up just adding a
null function that is always 0 and plotting it as a wide light gray for 0. I
plotted this on the chart last.
It seems the MS should add a plain If, then function to it's If, then, else.

neo,
This will only work with an oscillator! Place the following at the end of
your formula and exchange your formula where indicated (not in brackets):
A:={YOUR CUSTOM FORMULA HERE};
Green:=If(A>Ref(A,-1),A,0);
Red:=If(A<Ref(A,-1),A,0);
Signal:=Mov(A,5,S);
Signal;
Green;
Red;
This will give you a red, green, and moving average. If you do not want the
moving average signal simply leave all signal references out of your
formula. Try placing a dark horizontal line at zero or add 0 to the end of
your formula so that 0 is the last thing plotted.
