We do want to point out that there is a workaround to accomplish what you want. Particularly if you use a single Price Retracement and then modify it rather than drawing new ones. The general idea would be to use a couple of Spreadsheet Formula studies, which use the Alert Syntax to get the Anchor Point prices and calculate the two levels you want to have a certain coloring. For instance, you would enter a formula like the following to get the price of the 50% retracement line: =(UDID[1].A1 - UDID[1].A2) * .50 + UDID[1].A1 Then use the "Study Subgraphs Reference" and reference the two Spreadsheet Studies and use the "Fill" options to color the area between the lines. If you want the coloring across the entire chart, then you could stop here. If you only want it over certain areas, then you could either limit by the "Number of Bars to Calculate" in the "Spreadsheet Formula" studies, or you could use a Spreadsheet Study to get specific times for the lines.
