On a chart with LineOnClose as the Chart Style, I need to Over Ride the color of the LineOnClose from an indicator. Can someone provide the syntax ?

Thanks!

There is no documentation on ChartControls.

If you want to change the color for the ChartStyle LineOnClose, you can do this programmatically, but it will change the color for the entire plot. As far as I know, the ChartStyle LineOnClose does not use several pens or a BarColorSeries to store the values of the selected color for each bar.

This is the way to change the color of the whole plot:

 
Code
if (ChartControl.ChartStyleType == ChartStyleType.LineOnClose)
                        ChartControl.ChartStyle.UpColor = Color.Blue;
Note that the ChartStyle LineOnClose only uses the property UpColor. DownColor is not used.

Yes, you started two threads for a similar subject, which left me confused. Sorry for giving the right answer in the wrong place.
