Post From: Candlestick finder

I am trouble getting the candlestick finder to work, I think.
First, I dont think it identifies all of the patterns selected, but I guess I need to ask whose definitions of the candlestick patterns are you using? Second, I want to make sure I am setting up the inputs properly for MORE THAN ONE PATTERN. In my examples, I wanted to ask it to identify bullish engulfing and bearish engulfing. Engulfing definition is completely engulfing the previous bar's candle body. From what I see, it identifies SOME bull engulfing, but not others. It isn't identifying any bear engulfing from what I can see, so I question the setup of having more than one pattern selected.
The first 2 attachments are asking if the setup of the study for multiple patterns looks correct, the second 2 attachments are examples of engulfing patterns it DID NOT IDENTIFY, if I have set up properly There were others.

Also, in candlestick charts in general, the colors for an up bar in SC are green, a down bar red...can these colors be changed?

Thanks!
