Hi guys,
How to make down bar (ie, close<close[1]) in HLC (not HLCO) red and up bar green?

If I use PlotPaintBar,I had to input High, Low, Open, Close, this will plot the Open, that's not HLC.

Please see the attach pic.

jiaqiangmit,

you should be able to accomplish this using three separate plots for High, Low and Close while formatting them to Bar High, Bar Low and Right Tick.
