I tried to apply the down candle rule to my chart (down candle, red) but it doesn't change the candle colors.  They are all green.  Yet the rule is sitting there posted along the bottom of my graph along with my other rules that are working (for MAs, etc.).

What am I doing wrong, or not doing?

I don't know. It seems to work correctly when I add it. Have you selected Paint Price when Passing for the Down Candle Rule?

Yes, did that.  The red down rule worked on my other chart...  (I'm new to Stockfinder, but not TC).

I am having the same problem.  Set down candles to RED, but unless I change timeframes on charts, they just sit GREEN.  (Yes, I checked "Paint")
 
What is the REAL CODE for this?

lescohn,
If you want a RealCode Paint Brush that uses the same algorithm as the Down Candle RealCode Rule from the Web Library:

- Right-click on the Price History and select Edit Colors.
- Check Paint Indicator with RealCode (or select Edit).
- Replace everything in the Code tab of the RealCode Editor with the following and select Apply | OK.

If Price.Open > Price.Last Then
    PlotColor = Color.Red
Else
    PlotColor = Color.Lime
End If

Alternately, you could use the following RealCode instead:

If Line.Open > Line.Last Then
    PlotColor = Color.Red
Else
    PlotColor = Color.Lime
End If

Bruce,

Thanks.  I added the Real Code and it still does not work.
