slope when there's no slope

I use several studies and change the settings in the Graph Draw Style "Line" to "Based on slope".
I then color the first box green for up and second box red for down.
This gives me a good visual.
The problem I have is when the number is EQUAL to the previous bar, it colors the horizontal line the last "up/down" color.
I'd like to make a quicker visual identification of a horizontal line by having horizontal lines (no change in volume in this case) to a different color. So up=one color, down=another color, horizontal(no change)= 3rd color.
Is there a way of doing this? I see (in this case the Trade Volume)a "custom" option button for the draw type, but its greyed out.
Thx

For this you need to create your own Advanced Custom Study:
Advanced Custom Study Interface and Language (ACSIL)


And you need to use the sc.Subgraph[].DataColor array:
