  • reset color of histogram bar after being plotted...

    Hello,

    Can I go back and change one part (say the lower half) of the fg color of a histogram bar...after it has already been plotted...say 9 bars back...say bars -9 through -4 bars back?

    ******************

    I'm plotting a histogram on the basis of identified pivot (offered by RealTimeSwings.efs...nice offering BTW). But the way the RealTimeSwings.efs works is by establishing pivots with time...so there is a developing line that (effectively) tests new highs/lows that either meet a given criteria (and mark a new pivot) or are disregarded and the price bars are interpreted to be part of the (already established) last pivot.

    All this is well and good and the indicator does (really) an amazing job...but for my histogram (I'm tracking the difference in pivot points up and down as they form)...when the indicator is making use of the developing line...sometimes (for sake of accuracy) I have to plot on both sides of my zero line...I have to plot above and below the zero line of my histogram to account for the fact that the indicator...and the price bars haven't met the criteria to clearly identify a new pivot or a continuation of the last pivot.

    All this is a long way of asking if - after the fact - after I've plotted two lines (one above and one below my zero line) to account for these two possibilities; can I go back and reset the color of say the bottom part of the histogram bar?...set it to the backcolor of the histogram itself...thus making it dissappear...and (visually) correcting for the delay in pivot identifcation that occurs as new ones are identified?

    Does that make sense?

    Can I go back and change one part (say the lower half) of the fg color of a histogram bar...after it has already been plotted...say 9 bars back...say bars -9 through -4 bars back?

    Any help is much appreciated...sorry for the length,
