Meanwhile, I've replaced it with Timmy's Prometheus (located @ the rightmost in the screenshot below) , which now gives me additional view of the Commercials/Retailers market strengths and weaknesses.

@lolu

May I ask you where to get that 'Prometheus' add-on ?
It could be a very helpful tool for me.

Thanks a lot in advance !

... just to have a useless image as a background.


@Fat Tails,

The background really makes chart usefully pretty ... and as useful as you would have candle, BB and Kelner Channel color paintings.

Is it feasible to do the tweaks on your BB by a mere changing of the DrawRegion() command to FillPolygon command ? I'll want to give your BB a FillPolygon tweak.

I see that. Wondering what it is, the indicator. I've added the threads to my list. D

Yes, it is possible, but I am not going to do it. Many of my indicators use DrawRegion() and replacing it just for having a background picture is too much work, as each of the indicator would require a custom plot.

@lolu

@Fat Tails has his hands full writing intelligent,useful, serious indicators that are worth their weight in Gold...

On the other hand ... wasting time and money on pretty things that don't serve a useful purpose ... is pretty much the story of my life...

I'm just a simple man trading a simple plan.
