setBarBgColor on partial chart screen

[RuGO]

I was wondering if it is possible to use the setBarBgColor command in such a way that only a small section at the bottom of the chart window will display the dynamic colors?

In essence, I would like to implement a crossover study (without the need for a study pane), that would color only a limited section of the chart background (~1/10 of the height and all the way accross) based on the conditional statements.

I hope the attached image gives a better clue...

Many thanks!

Can't be done with setBarBgColor() as far as I know but it could be done using drawTextRelative(). Something like:

    if ( close(0)>close(-10) ) {
        nColor = Color.green;
    }
    else {
        nColor = Color.red;
    }
    
    drawTextRelative( 0, 5, "  ", nColor, nColor, Text.RELATIVETOBOTTOM | Text.FRAME , "Teletype", 20, nBarCounter );
