i believe but i am not entirely sure...
but the color will change dynamically on the last bar
only when the color change condition is set on previous bar
else if the condition is updated on the current bar intrabar,
the color would not change from the previous bar color until the close of
the current bar, even if you have update every tick checked.
bilo.
ps. i have the same problem in all 3 tradestations and i will verify that
next week in real time. i might be wrong here, but that's my
best recollection of the problem.
