[User Discussion] - Trying to use Study data in an ACSIL function

Hello! Im try to use the ADXVMA study's output data to generate the actual color (Red, Yellow and Blue) in my study and then coloring the price, but im having trouble. I see the three colors drawn(i use the color bar draw style) but they are disordered and without a patron.

I don't know if it can be disable the setting (Based On: ) that the studies have as default. Can have any impact on data?. I don't know if the problem is in the color logic or getting the data from the ADXVMA.

I'd greatly appreciate someone's help, here it is the code:


#include "sierrachart.h"
#include <string>
using namespace std;


SCDLLName("STDref")

SCSFExport scsf_STDref(SCStudyGraphRef sc)

{

  SCSubgraphRef ColorBar = sc.Subgraph[1];

  if (sc.SetDefaults)

  {
    sc.GraphName = "STDref";
    sc.StudyDescription = "STDref";
    sc.FreeDLL = 0;
    sc.AutoLoop = 1;
    sc.GraphRegion = 0;
    sc.Subgraph[0].Name = "STDref";
    sc.Subgraph[0].PrimaryColor = RED;
    sc.Subgraph[0].DrawStyle = DRAWSTYLE_COLORBAR;
    sc.Subgraph[0].LineWidth = 2;
    sc.CalculationPrecedence = LOW_PREC_LEVEL;
    sc.Input[0].Name = "Study Reference 1";
    sc.Input[0].SetStudyID(1);

    return;
  }

  SCFloatArray StudyReference1;

  sc.GetStudyArrayUsingID(sc.Input[0].GetStudyID(), 4, StudyReference1); // It's the same to point to ADXVMA sg.Subgraph[0] or ma sg.Subgraph[4] ?

  int ValueStudy1 = StudyReference1[sc.Index];
  int ValueStudy1b = StudyReference1[sc.Index - 1];
  int ColorSt1 = WHITE;

  if (ValueStudy1 > ValueStudy1b) {
    ColorSt1 = BLUE;
  }

  else if (ValueStudy1 < ValueStudy1b) {
    ColorSt1 = RED;
  }

  else if (ValueStudy1 == ValueStudy1b) {
    ColorSt1 = YELLOW;
  }

  sc.Subgraph[0][sc.Index] = sc.BaseData[SC_LAST][sc.Index];
  sc.Subgraph[0].DataColor[sc.Index] = ColorSt1;

}

You need to change data type of variables ValueStudy to float

float ValueStudy1 = StudyReference1[sc.Index];
float ValueStudy1b = StudyReference1[sc.Index - 1];
