We don't need a DLL to create a "NULL" function. Just write a simple
function that never produces a plot.
null:=ValueWhen(1,c<0,1);
Next, try to use it the following way in another custom indicator :
mva:=if(c>0,c,fml("NULL"));
mva;
What do you think will plotted ?
Answer : NULL ! [null literally absorbs the whole "if" function]
Conclusion : the Metastock "if/then/else" is flawed.
Make it work and no need at all for "if/then" stuff, really... Neither will
provide the elegant solution to your colour problem anyway.
