As you can clearly see from debug output, all Three Black Crows bar colors have Red (#FFFF0000) outline correctly set but NT still displays white one for them.

Second one that seems to be clear is that BE is displayed last and probably because of that correctly.

Edit: Original NT indicator did not have ability to change neither bar nor outline color; code sets outline color for some bars but not all of them; do not know what controls the rest but it's not included with the indicator.

Hello Pavel,

Great job creating a simplified script.

I was able to easily see that the candle outlines are being unset when the second instance of the indicator is applied.

I have reported this to our development with an example script to demonstrate the behavior.

Once I have a tracking ID for this I will post the ID in this thread.
