Hello! I have a condition with the Color Bar study that applies true to consecutive candles; is there any way to only display the first color bar of any consecutive series of true conditions? For example; I have a condition that hold true for 10 consecutive candles; I would only like to display the first of those 10 candles with a color bar. Any info will be appreciated. Thanks. |

There is not a way to do this with the "Color Bar Based on Alert Condition" study. The only option would be to create your own study to do this.

Please share an example of the formula you are currently using.

I came up with a quick fix using the Color Bar Based on Alert Condition Study. This is an example to only color the first red bar in a series of red bars: =AND(C < O, C[-1] > O[-1]). Just check if the condition is true on the current bar and if it wasn't true in the previous bar; this way it'll only color the first bar of a series of bars that meet a certain condition. |
