Hi Guys, I am needing help on a multiple study program... I have posted a link below for a sceenshot to review... As you will see there is 2 studies on top of each other. First are the normal studies then a BACKGROUND of COLOR CODED which I want to change color at specific levels as described below... http://www.sierrachart.com/image.php?l=1403557669399.png I need the Stochastic overlay to change color when the %D is above (green) or below (Pink) "50" level I need the RSI overlay to change color when the RSI Line is above (green) or below (Pink) "50" level I need the MACD overlay to change color when the MACD Line is above (green) or below (Pink) the "0" level Thank you for your help as always, Team One |

Try this: Instead of a second instance of each study for the background color, use an instance of the Study Subgraph Subtract study for each background: -Set the Based On to the relative study -Set the Chart Region to the same as the relative study -Set the Input Data to the chosen subgraph -Set the Amount to Subtract to 50 for the Stochastics and RSI, and 0 for the MACD. -Set the Draw Style to Background -Set the Auto-Coloring to Based on +/- |

Thanks tomgilb worked great! One more that I cannot figure out is on the MACD instead of the 0 crossover background color - I would like when the %K & %D crossover to make the background color? TY |

I don't understand this. Please explain. |

You said prior to: Study Subgraph Subtract study for each background Set the Amount to Subtract to 50 for the Stochastics and RSI, and 0 for the MACD... I did...BUT I wanted to color the background +/- on the crossover of the actual %k & %D line crossing each other, not when the %K line crosses the ZERO line? Not sure how to set that study correctly... TY |

For this, use the Color Bar Based On Above/Below Study study -Set the Based On to the Stochastics -Set the Chart Region to the same as the Stochastics -Set the Input Data to the %K -Set the Study Reference to the Stochastics - %D -Set the Draw Style to Background |
