This example can be used with constant tick charts, constant volume charts, or constant range charts. Although the bars span a variable amount of time, the zone coloring changes every 5-minutes.


Line A gets the Bar's Time and divides by 5 to create 5-minute periods, and stores it in GV [1]. Line B truncates the division from Line A and resaves the integer in GV [1]. Line C does a modulo 4 operation to return a remainder of 0, 1, 2, or 3. To change the time period for the color grouping, edit the Line A Value to the number of minutes for the period.
Lines D through G plot a different zone color for each of the 4 possible results from Line B's modulo 4 operation.
