Post From: Minor bug - Numbers Bars Calculated Values background colour

Excellent, I think that looks like what is happening and would explain why it wasn't happening on the 1M chart over a short period of time - I have found a place to replicate it on replay also:

Chart replay 30M period, ESZ22, 2022-11-23, 09:50:00 EST

10:00 bar begins, it starts with the Range 3 Up colour like the previous bar finished on. This background colour then doesn't change colour again regardless of value both negative or positive.

10:30 bar begins, it starts at Range 0 Up colour, when the value goes negative, it doesn't change colour. When the value goes higher, the Range 1 Up colour comes on, then goes back to Range 0 Up when the value drops.

11:00 bar begins, it starts at Range 0 Up colour, when the value goes negative, it doesn't change colour. The bar closes negative and moves to the left and changes to Range 3 Down.

11:30 bar begins, it goes between negative and positive changing colours to both Range 0 Down/Up. Then Range 2 and 3 Down colours. Bar finishes with a large negative with Range 3 down.

12:00 bar begins, it flips between negative and positive with Range 0 Down/Up colours. Changes to Range 1 up, then Range 2 up. Bar finishes positive with Range 1 up.

12:30 bar begins, it flips between negative and positive with Range 0 Down/Up colours. Goes through Range 1-3 Down colours.

So it's the type of behaviour from 11:30 onwards that I would prefer to have happening all of the time without the background colour of the current bar getting locked in based on previous values. Is there a way to make that happen at all, or is the behaviour described in the documentation just how it is?

The "Determine Maximum/Minimum Values for Background From" is set to Daily Data.

EDIT: I see that using All Data will prevent the condition happening as frequently and in the replay period above I get the colour changes as desired. It means the Range Colour is not going to be so varied for the current day though if large Positive/Negative values have happened on previous days. So kind of a choice between having more chance of the background colour changing, or the Range colours reflecting the current day values. I could add the study on twice and have both things covered.
