Hi Everyone, I bet there's an easy solution. I just want a way to colorize a line appropriately: Green when the line has a positive slope, red when the line has a negative slope.

Here is my code so far, but the color changes 1 period too late:

plot1(close);
if close >= close[1] then setplotcolor(1,green)
else setplotcolor(1,red);

It looks good when I shift the graph to the right 1 period, except of course the time is off.

plot1[-1](c);
if c>=c[1] then setplotcolor(1,green)
else setplotcolor(1,red);

swingbatter,

try shifting the plot color one bar to the left using Setplotcolor[1] instead of shifting the plot.
