Is it possible to change the outside bar study so that it only highlights as an outside bar if it closes above/below the previous bar? Thanks |

Yes of course. You could hire a programmer to do this: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?l=doc/SierraChartStudyAndSystemProgrammers.html Sierra Chart Support - Engineering Level Your definitive source for support.

You can easily color bars based on your own conditions using the Color Bar Based On Alert Condition study. Try this formula on the Alerts tab of the Color Bar Based On Alert Condition study: =OR(AND(C>O,C>H[-1],L<L[-1]),AND(C<O,C<L[-1],H>H[-1])) |

Perfect, thanks! Using the same logic I tried to use the Line study and an alert to dynamically draw the day's midpoint. Is this not right? I get an error =H-((H-L)/2) |

Yes, this is correct. You can use the Color Bar Based on Alert Condition study to do this or anything like this: http://www.sierrachart.com/index.php?l=doc/doc_TechnicalStudiesReference.html#s245 You can also alter the source code for the built-in study to your requirements.

The Line study won't do what you want. You could draw a line with the Color Bar Based On Alert Condition study by setting the Draw Style to Line, but the formula for a daily line would not be simple. You can more easily get a dynamic daily midpoint line using the Daily OHLC study. -Set the Reference Days Back to 0 -Set the Graph High and Low Historically to Yes -Set SG9's draw style to Dash -You can set the other SG draw styles to Ignore. |

Thanks. Seems like it works in the main. A couple of issues I need to look at more
