how to GET the wick color of the main price series

[Ricam]

There is a thread about how to SET the properties of candlesticks. But my question is how to programatically GET the color of the candle wick that was set by the user in Data Series Properties.


I went through the properties of the ChartControl object and so far haven't been able to find it there.....

Ricam,

This isnt something that is in the helpguide and may not be supported. I will check with my Product Manager on this for you and get back to you.

However as a workaround and this may work for you or may not be what your looking for but you could ask the user in your parameters when the user applied your indicator or strategy to set a wick color thier.

To do this use the guide below for user definable colors:

Let me know if I can be of further assistance.

Ricam,

Unfortunately the wick color is not supported. You can get the color of the bar or outline though in NT7.
