Hello,

Please help me to set different colors for candlesticks and bars.
I use an indicator Elder Impulse System, which returns colors for candles.
See example.

Hi Alexander,

In one of my response to your previous enquiry, I use multiple layers to create hollow and transparent candlesticks. You can use the similar method to create candlesticks of multiple colors.

Basically, you can use one layer for candles of the same color. For example, if your candles can be of 10 different colors, then use 10 candlestick layers, each for candles of one color. For each layer, you use normal high, low, open, close values for days that have candlesticks, and NoValue for days that do not have candlesticks.
