Post From: Color Bar Based On Alert Condition not updating

When you have enabled Evaluate on Bar Close for the Color Bar Based on Alert Condition study, what it effectively does is evaluate the Alert Condition Formula across all bars in the chart other than the last one. So when it is disabled, the evaluation also occurs on the last bar in the chart.

The formula we gave is equivalent but it will show the result on the next bar compared to the formula you are using. So the last bar the chart will be evaluated as well.

Not sure how we can make this more clear. But in any case, the formula you are original using will not work. It is simply impossible.
