Using Color Background Based On, Is there syntax that results in the background highlighted when the price crosses anywhere along the slope of the non-horizontal drawn line? I am trying to get a result when the market crosses a trendline - often this happens before it crosses the anchor price. Possible?

How would we designate the condition if the market crosses the line anywhere between the anchors, rather than just the anchor itself? We tried this but we unsuccessful: CROSSOVERFROMABOVE(C, UDID[3].[A1:A2])

Unfortunately, there is no automated way to be able to use a drawing with a CROSSOVER function. The only option available would be to enter the drawing data into a spreadsheet and then use that to determine line coordinates that could be fed into the CROSSOVER function.
