Has anyone added either background coloring or paintbars to Williams AD zero lag? Using it with my Unirenko chart (10 to 1) keeps me out of a great many bad trades.

The problem is that it is not easy to see the crossovers.

Two ways to do this.

1) Explain further with charts and definition of what gets colored and when (and options desired) and provide a link to the indicator and the settings used.

2) Create a post in the With charts, definitions of what gets colored when (and options desired) and provide a link to the indicator and the setting used.

I know what you mean about NT7 and background colors. You can probably go into your indicator and change the background color that is being painted. I had a similar problem with a TIME ZONE INDICATOR that I am using on my chart.

Suggest for light green try 232,255,239 for a setting
then maybe Ghost White and White smoke.
Will take some captures to show what I am talking about...

After right clicking in your chart and pulling up your indicator
you should have something that looks like.

To get to the Custom Colors provided whoever wrote your indicator gave you
full access to colors (no reason why they would not) you would then
CLICK on the spot shown below.

Here is a picture of how my chart looks with very subtle background changes
so that I may see the bars and changes.



NOTE: I am assuming you have a WHITE BACKGROUND. With BLACK it will be exactly the reverse.
You will adjust to get closer to BLACK than a bright background color. Attaching my chart to
show what I am talking about. Ignore all the other stuff if you want, but notice that using a
subtler difference will help.

Hope this helps.

Have a gr8 day.
