Add this in the DrawTextFixed statement:
+ "\n ATR2 " + (ATR (Close, atrPeriod)[0] * 2).ToString(".000000")

It changes colour. If you set the threshold to say 25, then when the ADX value is below 25 the box is RED, and when it is above 25 the box turns GREEN.

I just threw this together and you can modify as you please. Because I have no idea what defaults you would use I kept the
ATR period at 14 and used 5, as you mentioned, for the ADX. The background will change color at your threshold setting for the ADX. Dan
Hi eDanny,
Can you please add the possiblity to set the threshold fractional?For e.g., 333,3 instead of just 333?
Cheers!
