A correction to the post above - my alert condition are both the same for cumulative delta and for color bar: a) cumulative delta bar and the alert condition set there is: =ABS(ID3.SG2-ID3.SG3)>60 b) Color based on Alert Condition and the alert condition there is: =ABS(ID3.SG2-ID3.SG3)>60 I am not sure about d) from above and still how to set the Study Subgrapth Reference - I put: Cumulative delta bars (on the left) and then volume. Output: Use input Data Input Data: High... I have tried volume as well. |

- Make sure the Chart Region is the same as the Cumulative Delta - Volume study. In other words, the Cumulative Delta Study would need to be in Chart Region 4, given how you have this setup. - Change the Color Bar (SG1) subgraph to have a Draw Style of Color Bar. Everything else doesn't matter. This should take care of coloring the Cumulative Volume the color of the Color Bar Subgraph when the alert condition is true.

1) I have a draw style in Color Based On Alert condition as: Color Bar. 2) The alert conditions are the same in cumulative delta and Color based on Alert and it is: =ABS(ID3.SG2-ID3.SG3)>60 3) The chart region is set to 4 and Based on: Cumulative Delta Bars 4) Output When Condition True: Use Input Data 5) Input data (in 6): High 6) Study Subgraph Reference: Color Bar Based on Alert - Color Bar (SG1) I wrote all of it - because maybe I am making a mistake somewhere here, as it still does not work :-) |

According to your supplied image the Subgraph for Color Bar is set to Line - Skip Zeros. Please double-check this as that is the only relevant item apart from the Region. The rest of the items do not matter if you are just coloring the bar when the condition is true.

Thank you. I have changed that to Color Bar, but still do not have anything. The market is closed - maybe this is why... I will check everything again and come back if needed. Thank you for the supprort. |

There is almost two weeks we talk about color bar and I have not achaived much. Still do not have clor bar directly on cumulative delta, relative volume or volume. As we discussed cumulative delta instruction in the last few messages could you take a closer look at my message and perhaps find what I am doing wrong? If not can I ask for an online support directly on my PC where we can set the color bar on cumulative delta and relative volume, please? |

Attached is a Study Collection that has the Cumulative Delta - Volume and the Color Bar Based on Alert Condition with the condition specified above. Follow these instructions to use the Study Collection: Study Collections: Using a Study Collection Provided by Sierra Chart Support You will want to start a new chart to add this Study Collection, as when you add the Study Collection it will remove all other studies from the chart. Use this Study Collection to understand how to put together what you are wanting.

Can I have more than one color bar based on alert condition on the same chart? Can I have three? One for volume, the second for relative volume and the third for cumulative delta? Or I need to have three different charts with three different color bar based on alert condition?

You can have them all on the same chart. You would have separate Color Bar Based on Alert Condition for each of the items you want to color.

Thank you. When I put the same credentials on a chart when I have two other color bars based on alert condition indicators then I do not even get a cumulative delta on a color bar. I have no idea why. Maybe you could support me in preparing one more study collection with three color bars, for: a) Volume above 400 b) Relative Volume above 1300 c) Cumulative delta above 60. I will trully appreciate it. |

Attached a Study Collection for 2 of the 3 items. We leave the third for you to work out. Note the differences in the Color Bar Based on Alert Conditions for when it is used on a Volume that is displayed as Bars instead of Candlesticks.

It works. Thank you. Some mirror factors, but I will come back next week. Many, many thanks.

In general, I`ve managed to color bars but some of the color bars instead of being colored in full have only print color around the bar (just the border). What detail am I missing? I think I am doing everything the same, but still have the difference in coloring. Please see attachment. Maybe I should provide more details? For instance, create a chartbook with these two charts so you can see the details? |

Increase the "Width" setting for the color bar subgraph.

This is not the case - I will try to set separate chartbook with these two charts, so it will be easier to find the reason.

Did you set the Draw Style of the Color Bar Subgraph to be Bar so it matches the draw style of the subgraph you are coloring?

Take a look at the setup for the Volume study collection we gave you.

I have done exactly the same and have no idea why I cannot have the same results. I attached a printscreen and a chartbook. Thank you in advance for the detailed support.

You need to move the Color Bar Based on Alert Condition lower down in your list of studies. In particular, it needs to be below the Volume study so that when it is drawn it is drawn after the Volumes.
