The attached indicator compiles and calculates the correct values, but it won't plot the bar color correctly and I can't adjust the width of the bar, and I'm getting no clues as to what the problem could be. Could someone please help point me to the incorrect syntax?

Thanks in advance.

I would try something like this:

 
Code
if ( smis[0]>esmis[0] ) 
				
				PlotColors[0][0] = Color.Lime;
			else 
				PlotColors[0][0] = Color.Red;
edit:

also why do you need this part:

 
Code
                        Lines[0].Pen = new Pen(Color.Red, 2);
		 	Lines[1].Pen = new Pen(Color.Red, 2);
		   	Lines[2].Pen = new Pen(Color.Gray, 2);
I think you can delete those lines and still get the desired result.
