Hello,
I want a vertical column background when bid>ask, I tried to write different kind of formulas but didn't get with the good one and it doesn't paint it.
Thank you,

The bid price will never be greater than the ask price.

Sorry, I mean I try to plot this in background color: when the difference between ask-bid is above zero.
Thank you,
