Hey guys,

I found something strange in Ninja Trader but maybe it's just my mistake:

Look at this screenshot:

the Open is the same as the Close in the bars that I have marked.
Why they have different colors ?

It would be better when the bars where the Open=Close=High were green and
when Open=Close=Low were red.

Is this a bug of the "nogaprange" bars ?

Need some help please...

Hi Warren,

I believe its more the bar type you have chosen that is causing this effect.

However, I did not test this chart type against this bar type.

Test this bar type against NT's Range bar chart and see if the results are the same.

I take a look at the normal range bars and it seems to be similar.

Sometimes the bars with Open=Close are red sometimes they are green.
Can't see the logic behind that.

Hey guys,

I wrote a very simple indicator:

if ( Close[0] == Open[0] )
BarColor = Color.Yellow;

Now take a look at the screenshot.

I marked the bars with a red arrow which not changed their color.

Why ????

Sorry. Please delete that one in the elite circle.

Do you have any ideas why the bars become not colored ?
Please take a look at the screenshots.

Hey Mike,

there is a big bug in ninja trader! Please do the following:

Open a 3 range chart of any intrument.
Put this indicator in the chart.
Tell me why not all candles were Open=Close become colored.

That's a big bug. Think about all the indicator which not work correctly!
Can't believe what I see.

To:max-td

I emailed them. They told me this is the case when I use OHCL bars. But that makes 0% sense. I tested it with candlesticks and it's the same bug.
