DYO: Non Heikin-Ashi bar example and message


Q:  I could use some help with a DYO to find non-HA bars, and show a message in Section 1 when the non-HA bar is taken out.

A:  Let me show you a solution for showing when the Heikin-Ashi candle body is no longer covered by the regular bar's candle body.

Two Flags are available the H-Ashi Study Flag category to make it easy to test for whether the HA body is covered by the regular bar's body, or whether the HA body is visible.  The ZON marker shows the places where the regular bar body is totally covering the HA body underneath.

Now for the Section message when the HA covered body becomes visible, or taken out.  

Line B will be True when the Flag from Line A goes False, or it taken out, as you call it.   This take out bar is zone colored in pink and naturally follows a blue zone.   The Message Location is Section 1.   On the Message Text line you can have your True message  (HA taken out) and a vertical line to separate it from the message to display when the flag on Line B is False.  The False message in the example is a single space.   The background for the Section can be two colors, and when the flag is True a Green background color will be used, and when the flag is False I have a white background color shown.  So a space character on a white background looks like no message at all, which is the case in the example.  The Section 1 area appears to be totally blank.

Try this example and continue your DYO development.
