Ok, so I've run into the problem where it seems the issue is that bar counts don't match...

is there a trick to linning up bar counts?

bascially what i've done is plot the absolute value, but I want to color by actual value...

whereas

plot = system.math.abs(-.76)

===============================

count = ( myInd_01.bar.count - 1 ) - ( myInd_02.bar.count - 1 )

For i As Integer = 0 To myInd_02.bar.count - 1
    val = myInd_02.bar.value( i + count + 1 ) - myInd_02.bar.value( i + count )
    If val >1 then
         myCol = color.green
    else
         myCol = color.red
    endif
    addtooutput(myInd_02.bar.count(i), myCol)
next

================================


it all plots green...

one approach, have 2 plots

Plot A

Plot = value

Plot B

Plot = abs(value)

Set Plot B's color to Red and the have a color rule based on Plot A > 0 color green

Finally don't draw Plot A



2 comment on your code.

1. ir assumes that mtInd_02 has the lessor number of bar. That may not always be the case

2. AddToOutput has a datevalue as the first argument, your code does not.

Yeah I thought that I might have to do that, I thought there was a more mathematical approach though... ok, I'll do that then, thanks Jas..

hmmmm, this seems promising

NumOfBars; The NumOfBars property overrides the Bar Limiter setting in the Data Manager allowing you to set more(or less) bars available for your calculation.

Unfortunately the reference doesn't give any code examples, so it's really a shot in the dark as to the syntax.
