Hi there, I'm trying to set up an color background based on vwap channel band width on CL, and have a issue with it that I can't figure out how to fix. My formula is =ABS(ID10.SG6-ID10.SG7)<0.5, so when i use the less than value a whole number say 1 or 2, the color background works, but the value is too high for CL. When I change the value to less than 1, say 0.5, the color background doesn't work anymore, but I can see on the chart there're definitely situations that meet this criteria. Checked the ID and SG number and they're correct. Could you please let me know how to fix this issue? Much appreciated!

Thanks for the link. I read it and looked up the value format for ID10. It was set to "inherited", so I changed that setting to 0.001, but the color background is still not working. Could you please clarify what do I need to do about value format to make the color background start working?I can't seem to figure it out. Thanks!

There is no way we are going to be able to fully understand this unless we get your Chart with the Alert Formula.
