Is there away to setBarBgColor() offset in the future....?

[gguindon]

Hello,

I have a couple of simple moving averages that are offset several bars from the current bar (into the future) on my charts.

What I would like to do is color the background (say red) as they are moving together...in the offset space...not at the current bar. So this would be much like a consistently leading thermometer of the current price action. ***To this end I would like to remove the background color once the current bar 'caught up' with the painted background.

Is there a way to do this with setBarBgColor()?

Any help is much apppreciated,

You can't use setBarBgColor() [which can be applied only where there is a plot] but you could obtain a similar effect by drawing vertical lines using the drawLineRelative() function
