My empty post was 
supposed to read:

This is direct from 
the Metastock Help files on Three Line Break . . .  (just substitute green 
for white and red for black)

"Three Line Break 
charts originate from Japan and were introduced to the western world by Steve 
Nison (a well-known authority on the Candlestick charting method).  The 
Three Line Break charting method gets its name from the default number of line 
blocks typically used.Using the closing price, a new white block is added in 
a new column if the previous high price is exceeded.  A new black block is 
drawn if the close makes a new low.  If there is neither a new high or low, 
nothing is drawn.
 
With a default Three 
Line Break, if a rally is powerful enough to form three consecutive white 
blocks, then the low of the last three white blocks must be exceeded before a 
black block is drawn.  If a sell-off is powerful enough to form three 
consecutive black blocks, then the high of the last three black blocks must be 
exceeded before a white block is drawn.To draw line break blocks, today's 
close is compared to the high and low of the previous block.  A block is 
drawn only when today's close exceeds the high or low of the previous 
block.  If today's close is higher than the top of the previous block, a 
new white block is drawn in the next column from the prior high to the new high 
price.  If today's close is lower than the bottom of the previous block, a 
new black block is drawn in the next column from the prior low to the new low 
price.  If the close fails to move outside the range of the previous blocks 
high or low, then nothing is drawn.
 
With the default 
Three Line Break chart, a downside reversal (i.e., white blocks change to black 
blocks) occurs when the price moves under the lowest price of the last three 
consecutive white blocks.  A black reversal block is drawn from the bottom 
of the highest white block to the new price.  An upside reversal (i.e., 
black blocks change to white blocks) occurs when the price moves above the 
highest price of the last three consecutive black blocks.  A white reversal 
block is drawn from the top of the lowest black block to the new high 
price.
 
Indicators 
calculated on Three Line Break charts use all the data in each column and then 
display the average value of the indicator for that 
column."

[EquisMetaStock Group] Three Line Break???
I got a question about Three Line 
  Break that i read about in this Yahoo Group. "Three line break is 
  already in metastock. Click on the price line. Go to the box on the 
  left bottom of the screen. Go all the way to the bottom under Renko where 
  it says three line break. In side one of the boxes, right click your 
  mouse, pick the first box, it opens your color window, pick whatever 
  colors you want for up and down boxes." I give the "up" the 
  colour GREEN and "down" the colour REDMy question is:If the last 4 
  bars is GREEN, is it possible to see on what price the next bar (tomorrow) 
  will get the colour RED?For an example. I buy Ericb.st (a Swedish 
  stock) on 8th of July when it turn GREEN on 9,40KR (Swedish crowns). Now 6 
  bars later it still is GREEN and the price is 11,50KR. I want to sell when 
  the next bar turs RED. But how can I know on what price it turs RED? I 
  want Stop Loss on that price.Another question:Is it possible 
  to get this formula in Explorer? Or in Expert Advisor"? If "yes"... What 
  is the formula?/MagnusTo
