I'm using this to display a value that goes both positive and negative. The text shows "-" for negative as expected. But I'm trying to have it change color for negative and the Auto Coloring for +/- does not seem to work. I'm using the default Draw Style of Custom Text.

The Auto-Coloring is not going to work for that study as in the end it is using the Drawing tools to create what is displayed.

The only way to do what you are asking for would be to modify the code and set the color as you would want it based on +/-. Refer to the following:
