Hi, i have tried and upto now failed...please help... what formula is available within the 'alert condition' in alerts for say a study subgraph where if for example, the bar was an up bar (or low bar) and the displayed number (above/below bar study) has reached a determined value and I want it to turn say, white? I am sorta ok with this kind of problem but on this particular problem I appear to be totally rubbish :-/////// Any (friendly) help would be very much appreciated! Thankyou in advance :-))))

What study is displaying a value above/below the bar?

Hi, just a study reference calculated elsewhere, just need this reference to change color depending on if the bar has closed up (top of bar) or close down (bottom of bar display) 👍👍👍

You'll need two instances of the Color Bar Based On Alert Condition study, one for each color. Up bar formula: =AND(C>O,ID3.SG1>100) Down bar formula: =AND(C<O,ID3.SG1<-100) where ID3 is the referenced study and is above/below a certain value. If you want to color the referenced study instead of the price bars, follow these instructions: Color Bar Based on Alert Condition: Coloring Subgraphs of Other Studies
