Hello Guss,

There is a formula example that does something similar that was discussed recently in this thread.

As for creating conditional statements, yes, this is possible. You use the close() series to reference the closing values of the bars. To color the price bars you use the setColorPriceBars() preMain() function in conjunction with setPriceBarColor() within your conditional block inside main(). Here's the basic code example.

function preMain() {
    setStudyTitle("test");
    setPriceStudy(true);
    setShowCursorLabel(false);
    
    setColorPriceBars(true);
    setDefaultPriceBarColor(Color.grey);
}



function_main()_{
    var nClose_0 = close(0);
    var nClose_1 = close(-1);
    
    if (nClose_0 < nClose_1) {
        setPriceBarColor(Color.red);
    } else {
        setPriceBarColor(Color.green);
    }
    
    return;
}
