Want to create an indicator and have no idea where to start?
This indicator was written according to the trading method developed by Jeff Castille (Jeff's CCI thread). It is a 50 period CCI histograph with an additional 6 period CCI plot. It has Jeff's Dots plotted on the zero line and two, angle of the moving …

As mentioned, I am working with 3 oscilators( 2 histograms and 1 regular oscilator). I have FINALLY figured out how to get access to them, and have successfully painted an arrow based on the vertical position of these oscilators on the chart. I.e. if >10, draw an arrow. This is just so I can see what is going on.
Now I need to continue, and get access to the colors of these histograms.
After that, it will be getting access to some color bars that one of the oscilators paints which might be a bit more complicated as it is based on the swings.
Then it will simply be all the various conditional statements to create my logic.
Ok, here is it is. These are ProfLogic's indicators that he gives to anyone who requests them.
I have attached the NT7 file itself along with the template I use. Also is my .cs file that I created. And a picture of how I have mine set up. Let me know if there is something that is unclear, or if I have mis attached the files.
Ok, looks like NT does NOT allow direct reference of the color bars, or colors of the oscillators. It seems you can set it, but you can't reference it later. So, i'll have to figure out how to recreate the conditions that make the colors within the studies.
Ok, color is based on the slope. But also there is a buffer factor added into the color change of the histogram.
Example, If Hist[0] > Hist[1], then slope is up and color is green. BUT... for it to change back to black, it has to change by a greater amount than the buffer(default is 0.1).
