I'm having trouble trying to programmatically change a default color setting to the desired custom setting for the
ElderImpulse indicator as highlighted below. I even tried changing the color in the "Edit Properties" GUI interface
with no luck...

Any help/assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance...

# Indicator name: ElderImpulse

input length = 13;
input paintBars = yes;

def EMA = ExpAverage(close, length);
def MACD = ExpAverage(close, 12) - ExpAverage(close, 26);
def MACDHist = MACD - ExpAverage(MACD, 9);
def GreenPrice = EMA > EMA[1] and MACDHist > MACDHist[1];
def RedPrice = EMA < EMA[1] and MACDHist < MACDHist[1];

plot Bullish = GreenPrice;
plot Neutral = !GreenPrice and !RedPrice;
plot Bearish = RedPrice;

Bullish.SetDefaultColor(Color.UPTICK);
Bullish.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.BOOLEAN_POINTS);
Bullish.SetLineWeight(3);
Bullish.Hide();
Neutral.SetDefaultColor(Color.BLUE);
#Neutral.SetDefaultColor(CreateColor(204, 204, 0));
Neutral.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.BOOLEAN_POINTS);
Neutral.SetLineWeight(3);
Neutral.Hide();
Bearish.SetDefaultColor(Color.DOWNTICK);
Bearish.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.BOOLEAN_POINTS);
Bearish.SetLineWeight(3);
Bearish.Hide();

DefineGlobalColor("Bullish", Color.UPTICK);
DefineGlobalColor("Neutral", Color.BLUE);
#DefineGlobalColor("Neutral", CreateColor(204, 204, 0));
DefineGlobalColor("Bearish", Color.DOWNTICK);

AssignPriceColor(if !paintBars then Color.CURRENT
else
if GreenPrice then GlobalColor("Bullish")
else
if RedPrice then GlobalColor("Bearish")
else GlobalColor("Neutral"));

You want to change from Blue to 204,204,0 ?

Thanks for your inquiry, rmejia. The reason why I wanted to change the candles from blue to (204, 204, 0) a/k/a Yellow is because the blue candles were hard to see against the TOS dark blue background...

In any event, I worked it out with a little help from a ThinkScripter. Below are the pertinent old and new code snippets for any/all interested parties to review...

Old code:

 

Code

Bullish.SetDefaultColor(Color.UPTICK); Bullish.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.BOOLEAN_POINTS); Bullish.SetLineWeight(3); Bullish.Hide(); Neutral.SetDefaultColor(Color.BLUE); #Neutral.SetDefaultColor(CreateColor(204, 204, 0)); Neutral.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.BOOLEAN_POINTS); Neutral.SetLineWeight(3); Neutral.Hide(); Bearish.SetDefaultColor(Color.DOWNTICK); Bearish.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.BOOLEAN_POINTS); Bearish.SetLineWeight(3); Bearish.Hide(); DefineGlobalColor("Bullish", Color.UPTICK); DefineGlobalColor("Neutral", Color.BLUE); #DefineGlobalColor("Neutral", CreateColor(204, 204, 0)); DefineGlobalColor("Bearish", Color.DOWNTICK); AssignPriceColor(if !paintBars then Color.CURRENT else if GreenPrice then GlobalColor("Bullish") else if RedPrice then GlobalColor("Bearish") else GlobalColor("Neutral"));

New Code:

 

Code

Bullish.SetDefaultColor(Color.UPTICK); Bullish.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.BOOLEAN_POINTS); Bullish.SetLineWeight(3); Bullish.Hide(); Neutral.SetDefaultColor(CreateColor(204, 204, 0)); Neutral.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.BOOLEAN_POINTS); Neutral.SetLineWeight(3); Neutral.Hide(); Bearish.SetDefaultColor(Color.DOWNTICK); Bearish.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.BOOLEAN_POINTS); Bearish.SetLineWeight(3); Bearish.Hide(); # Deleted the unnecessary DefineGlobalColor cruft AssignPriceColor(if !paintBars then Color.CURRENT else if GreenPrice then Color.UPTICK else if RedPrice then Color.DOWNTICK else CreateColor(204, 204, 0));

Hope this helps someone in someway...
