I would like to have the text for a zigzag (eg. the Delta in my case) to be colored acourding to if it is a pos or neg vale. What it does is to color is if it is an uptrend or downtrend. Also changing the auto coloring to "based on +/-" does not change that. Is that not supported, or am I doing something wrong. See pic. |

The ZigZag only colors based on the Up/Down trend. There is not an option for coloring based on Positive/Negative values. You can modify the study itself to get what you need. The code is in the file Studies7.cpp which is located in the ACS_Source folder under your main Sierra Chart installation.

This is now available in version 2901 (currently the Pre-Release). Set the following to view this: - Volume to Accumulate: Ask Bid Volume Difference - Display Zig Zag Volume: Yes - Text Labels subgraph (SG2) >> Auto Coloring: Based on +/- The displayed volume will then be colored the Primary subgraph color for positive values and the Secondary subgraph color for negative values.
