Multicharts Colour Question

[nuno-online 10]

Hi

 

is this possible to do this in MC

 

- Put a color beetween Bollinger Band Up and BB Down

 

- Put a color beetween Bollinger Bands and for example Keltner Bands

 

Please see screenshots

Can someone who use Multicharts tell me if this is possible with MC:

put a color beetween Bollinger Band Up and BB Down

 

thank you

I don't think so (though I have not tried version 6 yet). You can 'fake it' by plotting HL bars with the plot set to the thickest width. Worth signing up to their forums, people are pretty helpful over there.

Thank you BlowFish for your reply

{in the Format Study window:

set the plot1 and plot2 TYPE to Bar High and Bar Low.

set the plot weight to thick.

}

 

inputs:

BollingerPrice( Close ),

TestPriceUBand( Close ),

TestPriceLBand( Close ),

Length( 20 ),

NumDevsUp( 2 ),

NumDevsDn( -2 ),

Displace( 0 ) ;

 

variables:

var0( 0 ),

var1( 0 ),

var2( 0 ),

var3( 0 ) ;

 

var0 = AverageFC( BollingerPrice, Length ) ;

var1 = StandardDev( BollingerPrice, Length, 1 ) ;

var3 = var0 + NumDevsUp * var1 ;

var2 = var0 + NumDevsDn * var1 ;

 

condition1 = Displace >= 0 or CurrentBar > AbsValue( Displace ) ;

if condition1 then

begin

Plot1[Displace]( var3, "bar high" ) ;

Plot2[Displace]( var2, "bar low" ) ;

Plot4[Displace]( var3, "UpperBand" ) ;

Plot5[Displace]( var2, "LowerBand" ) ;

Plot6[Displace]( var0, "MidLine" ) ;

 

 

if Displace <= 0 then

begin

condition1 = TestPriceLBand crosses over var2 ;

if condition1 then

Alert( "Price crossing over lower price band" )

else

begin

condition1 = TestPriceUBand crosses under var3 ;

if condition1 then

Alert( "Price crossing under upper price band" ) ;

end;

end ;

end ;
