I tried that & it doesn't seem to like that line of code. I get: "No overload for method "DrawRegion" takes "7" arguments"
So, I went in to your indicator & copied code & modified it for mine:
(added a private double M = 0; the public data series for "Middle", "UR" (upper region) and "LR" (lower region), thinking that if '0' was the middle, +20 would be the upper region and -20 would be the lower region & then added this code:
Guys....I am very glad I started this thread. I just needed a simple clarification and it is ending up to be a thread for creation of a revised and more useful indicator....excellent work Zeller, Wizard, Cory and everyone else contributing. This just shows how powerful this forum can get (Thanks Mike).
I just posted the SMI5 to the downloads section with the enhancements you requested. Cory was kind enough to guide me through & contribute the code that made this possible.
After all, it's what you learn AFTER you know it all, that counts!
Wizard, I just downloaded and applied the SMI5 to a 6E chart. For some reason, I can not get the arrows or the background color to paint on the price bar. I have the paint background to "true" and show arrows as "true", also.
Go into the indicator preferences panel & under OFFSET, change it to 0.001.
The background coloring occurs in the indicator panel (#2, #3, etc) - not the main price bar panel.
If you want to paint the price bar panel, add another SMI5, change all the plots (lines, dots, histogram bars, etc) to "TRANSPARENT" and then put the indicator in PANEL 1. That way ONLY the background coloring will occur & only in panel 1 (Pricebar panel).
I've attached a screenshot of what my 6E looks like with the OFFSET set to 0.001 for the arrows, both on the slow and the fast SMI5. Hope that helps.
