Mike, you are fast at coding stuff, really nice work. Just out of curiosity is it possible to add a paint bar to the +45/-45 CCI, would be cool if the visual was right there on the bars themselves, with even the ability to be able to have the numbering on the price bars, perhaps a turn on/off feature if that's possible. Anyway just a thought, I'm not sure how difficult that all is. I certainly appreciate your hard work.

Not sure I understand. Everything you asked for is already there. the bars are painted 3 different colors depending on their relationship to the +/- 45 along with a dot on the first bar that crosses. the numbers are displayed on the 200 lines. all the colors are customizable. So, not sure what you're asking for that isn't already there.

I think he is asking for the price bars on panel 1 to be colored according to the CCI value as opposed to the CCI histogram bars being painted

so, if i understand correctly, the +45 line will be green when the histogram is above and gray or some other neutral color when the histogram is below. opposite for the -45 line?

by the way...i noticed today that COBC=false isn't working correctly with the ESRXtrader_CCI_Barcounter indicator. the numbers are updating correctly. so, i suggest using COBC=true until i get that fixed.

Probably best for jdella to respond to his request but my understanding is it has nothing to do with colors on your CCI indicator on panel 2. His request is to color the price bars on panel 1 so that all price bars on panel 1 are a certain color when the CCI > 45 and a different color when CCI < 45 (paint bar study).

Yes that's exactly it, the price bars themselves having the ability to paint either green for +45 and red for -45 and a neutral color for when in between, all in panel 1in addition to the CCI still being shown in panel 2 exactly as it is now. Sorry i wasn't more clear on that. Thanks a bunch.

Good grief am I slow or what. Maybe I should adjourn for the evening. I've done similar things in the last couple hours.

Is anyone other than the author trading this method successfully? If so, do you mind showing your charts with all entries for today, or any chart in the past few recent days?

I extensively used it today (in addition to some other tools). Have a look at my last trade of the day on Crude Oil here in my Dairy. The ESFX indicator numbers don't seem to be counting as I expect in some instances.

I posted earlier that COBC=false isn't working correctly.

Did you take more then one trade with it today? Why did you choose that specific trade? There seems to be many other valid entries on that chart.
