Post From: Heikin-Ashi Custom Colors via ASCIL

I'm attempting to custom color of Heikin-Ashi bars based on T3-5 and T3-8 cross and their angles being both positive or negative.
Got it about 50% done but struggling when trying to apply the logic of changing the candlesticks drawing style to DRAWSTYLE_COLOR_BAR_HOLLOW.
Any tips will be appreciate (the code compiles but has no effect on the candles). The desired effect of coloring is shown on the picture.

#include "sierrachart.h"
SCDLLName("HA_colors")

SCSFExport scsf_MyStudyHA(SCStudyInterfaceRef sc)
{
  //logging object
  SCString msg;
  //SCInputRef i_T3 = sc.Input[0];
  SCSubgraphRef Subgraph_Open = sc.Subgraph[0]; //OPEN
  SCSubgraphRef Subgraph_High = sc.Subgraph[1]; //HIGH
  SCSubgraphRef Subgraph_Low = sc.Subgraph[2]; //LOW
  SCSubgraphRef Subgraph_Last = sc.Subgraph[3]; // CLOSE
      
  if (sc.SetDefaults)
  {
    // Set the configuration and defaults
    sc.GraphName = "HK_Colors";
    //i_T3.Name = "Select T3 Study on main price graph";
    //i_T3.SetChartStudyValues(sc.ChartNumber, 0);

    //sc.GraphDrawType = GDT_CANDLESTICK;
    sc.GraphRegion = 1;
    sc.ValueFormat = VALUEFORMAT_INHERITED;
        
    sc.AutoLoop = 1;
    return;
  }

  
//sc.GetChartArray()
  //get main price graph open and close
  SCFloatArray ORef;
  SCFloatArray CRef;
  sc.GetChartArray(1, SC_OPEN, ORef);
  sc.GetChartArray(1, SC_LAST, CRef);
  int oSize = ORef.GetArraySize();

  //Study ID as obtained via Input or Study Int# shown in the Studies view ID:16 T3-8, Subgraph array starts with 0 -SG1 has index 0
  //sc.GetStudyArrayUsingID(i_T3.GetStudyID(), 0, T3Ref);
  //sc.GetStudyArrayUsingID(16, 0, T3Ref);

  SCFloatArray T35Ref; //13
  SCFloatArray T38Ref; //16
  sc.GetStudyArrayUsingID(13, 0, T35Ref); //T3-5
  sc.GetStudyArrayUsingID(16, 0, T38Ref); //T3-8


  SCFloatArray T35aRef; //40
  SCFloatArray T38aRef; //39
  sc.GetStudyArrayUsingID(40, 0, T35aRef); //angle of T3-5
  sc.GetStudyArrayUsingID(39, 0, T38aRef); //angle of T3-8


  //get a sudy's supbgraph's values - all values show in log as expected

  if (sc.Index == oSize - 1) {
    msg.Format("Open=%f, Close=%f, T35=%f, T35a=%f, T38=%f, T38a=%f", ORef[sc.Index], CRef[sc.Index], T35Ref[sc.Index], T35aRef[sc.Index], T38Ref[sc.Index], T38aRef[sc.Index]);
    sc.AddMessageToLog(msg, 1);
  }

  //This part does not work yet..
