How to Change colour of indicator

[jzolty]

Question regarding writing a EFS study to change indicator colour.

For example 2 moving averages. fast MA crosses above slow MA then colour of slow MA indicator changes to green. Fast MA crosses below slow MA then slow MA changes to red.

Any suggestions certainly appreciated.

The attached efs should do what you asked.
All parameters for both moving averages can be modified through Edit Studies

Alexis I tried to alter my TSI code using your MA example and hit a brick wall.

The Ergodic TSI indicator plots two lines.
I'm trying to :
1) plot a colour change on the signal line when the TSI line turns up/down compared to one bar ago. TS easylangue example TSIline>TSIline[1] then change colour of signal line.
2) only plot the signal line not the TSI line.
3)plot user defined Overbought and oversold lines.

Sure could use your help on this...

thanks,
Jack

Alexis.. TSI Attatchment

Attatchment didn't seem to send. I hope this get through.

The attached revision of the efs should include all the changes you requested.
The Overbought and Oversold levels are set by default at 10 and -10 respectively (in lines 117 and 123) and can be modified through Edit Studies
All the modifications are commented in the efs, but if you need any further explanation feel free to ask.

Alexis,
one more quickie,

how do I get the signal line to change colour when the signal line changes direction. and not when the nTSI line changes direction like it is written now??

I sure appreciate your help

Replace this section

if(nTSI>nTSI_1)
setBarFgColor(Color.blue);
if(nTSI<nTSI_1)
setBarFgColor(Color.red);

with the following

if(aEMA5[0]>aEMA5[1])
setBarFgColor(Color.blue);
if(aEMA5[0]<aEMA5[1])
setBarFgColor(Color.red);

That will color the signal line based on its direction

aEMA not defined??

Alexis,

Error message,

Aema is not defined??
help.

Jack
It should be aEMA5[x] where x is 0 for current bar, 1 for the prior bar, 2 for 2 bars ago. I am not sure what the length of that array is but I think it is set to 3 which means you can retrieve the aEMA5 values of up to two bars ago
