How To Color Candles based on Stoch Level

[dpace]

I want to be able to have candles colored based upon Stoch Level. I have found the MAPriceBars Formula that does it based upon MA so I thought it would work to start with that. Here is the code for MAPriceBars.efs, can someone tell me how to change it so that the colors are based upon Stoch Study being above 80 mor below 20. I do not know anything about efs yet other than I can edit it. Thanks in advance for any help.

function preMain() {
setPriceStudy(true);
setStudyTitle("Stoch PriceBars");
setCursorLabelName("sto");
setColorPriceBars(true);
setDefaultPriceBarColor(Color.black);

var fp1 = new FunctionParameter("nInputLength", FunctionParameter.NUMBER);
fp1.setName("Length");
fp1.setLowerLimit(1);
fp1.setDefault(20);
}

function main(nInputLength) {
var nMA = sma(nInputLength, 0);
var vClose = close(0);

if(nMA == null || vClose == null) return;

if(nMA >= vClose) {
setPriceBarColor(Color.red);
} else if(nMA < vClose) {
setPriceBarColor(Color.lime);
}

return nMA;
}

Maybe this might help

Thanks bohmlimo, I have modified your supplied EFS to color the bars as I need. It was very easy.

Now I one thing left that I would like to do that I need help w ith:

I have set the EFS so that it colors the bars when Fast Stoch goes above 80 or below 20.

Now I would like to add a dot above or below the candle on the Close of the first candle only in any series that is above or below. I have attached a sample of what I am trying to get.

Thanks

Has anyone turned this indicator into a strategy?

I gave it a shot but doesn't seem to be working, when I get the time I will fix it and post it.
