In reference to a trading system based on alert condition...

Is there a was to reference the primary and secondary colors of a study versus calculating slope.

For instance the "Volatility Trend Indicator" has primary and secondary colors and I don't believe they are based on slope.

Is there a way to directly reference the primary/secondary color in an alert formula?

I guess i could get the code and create two subgraphs, one for one color and one for the other so that they can be referenced.

More importantly, maybe when the primary and secondary colors do not represent "slope" they should be separate subgraphs.

There is not a way to reference the color (or what the color represents). Refer to the following:

I have a SC tool that can trigger alerts based on the colour of the indicator, if you still need help?
