Hi Morning song,
I am not sure what is the "shadow color" in your enquiry. Do you mean you would like to
have drop shadow effect for the candlesticks, or is it referring to the "fill color" of the
candlesticks (the color that fill the box in the candlesticks)?
For the fill colors, the standard examples in ChartDirector already demonstrate how to use
custom colors. For example, in the "Finance Chart (2)" sample code, the candlesticks are
using the custom colors "red" and "green" as the fill colors for up and down days. In the
sample code, the line to do this is:
c->addCandleStick(0x00ff00, 0xff0000);
You can modify the parameters 0x00ff00 and 0xff0000 to other colors to customize the
colors of the candlesticks.

Hi Morning,
The color axis you attached can be created by a contour layer. So for your requirement,
you can add a contour layer to the chart with no data. In this way, the contour layer will
be invisible. You can then ask the contour layer to put the color axis in the position you
want, and configure the color axis scale to your required scale.
For example, if you are using the FinanceChart object to create the candlestick layer, it is
like:
XYChart *mainChart = c->addMainChart(240);
ContourLayer *layer = mainChart->addContourLayer(DoubleArray(), DoubleArray(),
DoubleArray());
ColorAxis *axis = layer->setColorAxis(50, 30, Chart::TopLeft, 200, Chart::Right);
axis->setLinearScale(0, 100, 10);
c->addCandleStick(.............);
Hope this can help.

Hi Morning,
You do not need the xData. Just pass in an empty array.
public: ScatterLayer* addQianKunTongIndicator(XYChart* c, DoubleArray yData, int symbol)
{
ScatterLayer *layer = c->addScatterLayer(DoubleArray(), yData, "", symbol, 10);
return layer;
}
Hope this can help.
