Hi
I wonder if someone could explain to me how I can create a histogram with the below indicator?
Basically I am wanting everything coloured in that which is below 0 up to Closing line and above 0 up to Closing line. I just want everything shaded in.
Not sure if I am making sense. Very new to coding and have really no clue what I am doing.
{Relative Strength Code}
x:= Security("C:\EQUIS\INDEX\J203",C);
y:= Input("Periods for Ratio",0,9999,1);
z:= Input("Periods to Sum up", 1,9999,52);
R:= C/x;
base:= Sum(R,z)/z;
mf:= ((Ref(R,-y)/base)-1)*10;
mf;0;

You need to change the last line so that it has TWO (2) plots -- one for above zero, a separate plot below zero. Change the last line of your code, as follows: OLD
NEW
Code:
If(mf>0,MF,0); { GREEN }
If(mf<0,MF,0); { RED }
2. Then, change each plot STYLE to "HISTOGRAM" and COLOR to what you want. NOTE: You need to click one of these, make the style & color changes, then click an empty spot on the chart, then click the other line. In MetaStock, there is no way to do this in the formula code.

Thanks Johnathan.
I have done what you said below, which is almost there, but I would like those lines in the histogram to be a solid colour and not individual lines.
Is this possible?

The best you can do is to "thicken" the plot style to maximum; then, when you shrink the x-axis to about a year (or more), it will "appear" to be solid.
