ehjump Posted February 17, 2015 Report Share Posted February 17, 2015 Hi Jerry; Not sure what this option is in the settings menu, but I used to assume it would cause the outlining of a candle or price bar when the bar Open = bar Close. I've checked & unchecked this option but did not notice any changes to the candles. For OHLC charts when a bar's Open is equal to its Close, the bar and tail are yellow. But with candlestick charts, if the candle has a tail the candle is green (the candle is yellow if it does not have a tail.) Is there a way to make the candle bars yellow when the bar Open = bar Close and it has a tail? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Medved Posted February 19, 2015 Report Share Posted February 19, 2015 it has nothing to do with open or close. It just draws an outline around the candle, but is automatically turned off when the candle size is lower than a certain amount (unless you have "Outline Narrow Candles" turned on, so if you want to see it, set that option and then zoom in on the candles. When I maximize the chart on my smaller screen, the outline stays until the period is about 200 bars. I think you want to uncheck the "Wicks Same Color as Candle" option.

ehjump Posted February 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2015 Okay, that explains the difference between how it's treated with OHLC vs candlesticks (my OHLC bar was thicker than the corresponding candlestick, so OHLC bar got outlined.) Thanks for your response. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
