I would like to know how the doji bar color is determined. Maybe not specifically a Sierra question but I hope someone can clarify this. Why some dojis are green and some red if they open and close at the same price? From what I can tell if the bar before it is green and doji open/close is the same or higher then the doji itself will be green. Same for the red. Is there anything else I'm missing?

The coloring of an up price bar is persistent [green] until the current Open is less than the current Close, OR the current Open equals the current Close and the current Open is less than the previous Close. The coloring of a down price bar is persistent [red] until the current Open is greater than the current Close, OR the current Open equals the current Close and the current Open is greater than the previous Close. The spreadsheet formula here matches the coloring of up and down price bars: Spreadsheet Example Formulas and Usage: Determining Slope or Direction Since this involves a persistent variable, you would need to use a spreadsheet study to accurately alert on a change of color.
