I was reading the help files for this study and it is written in the help file that you can modify the study to "[Draw] Arrows or Other Styles at the High or Low of Bars" instead of changing the color of the background. I am interested in accomplishing this, however, in the instructions of how to do this it refers to an input called "Output When Condition Is True." My charts don't have this input option available; see attached PNG image. Has this input, Output When Condition Is True, been removed? Is there another way to accomplish this?

Thank you-

You are using the wrong study. You need to use Color Bar Based on Alert Condition.

Thank you for the reply. What a blunder on my part, I was adding the wrong study. @Patrick Z, thank you for the video; this is spot on!
