I'd like to create an auto trading strategy that enters a trade when an indicator (such as those in the chart I have attached) changes colors and the candle closes, locking in that color change. How can I go about doing this? I am new to this.

You will want to use either the Trading System Based on Alert Condition or the Spreadsheet Trading study. Which one just depends on which you are more comfortable with. Offhand, we would recommend starting with the Trading System Based on Alert Condition and then going to the Spreadsheet if you find you require more control. Refer to the documentation for the Trading System Based on Alert Condition here:
Trading System Based on Alert Condition

You will have to put together the Alert Condition for what you are wanting to have happen. Therefore, you will have to look at what is actually causing the change to the color and then create the Alert Condition for that situation. You will find the information for the Alerts here:
