MACD updown: avg line to stay on top

[alright_it]

Hello. I have the MACD updown set as in the picture, How can I get the avg line to display on top of the bars? Thank you

Hello Alright_it,

Thank you for your post.

You will need to change the Z-Order of the chart object, to accomplish this

- Select the chart object by left mouse clicking on it
- Hold down the "Shift" key on your keyboard and roll the mouse scroll wheel to change the z-order of the object. The current position out of the total number of levels in the z-scale will be displayed.

This will allow you to change the Z-Order on the fly if this happens again.

Thanks for replying Cal, but probably I wasn't clear. I need that white line I marked with an arrow, which is the average line and is part of the MACD indicator, to plot on the foreground of the green-red bars, while currently it's on the background. The histogram bars and the lines on the MACD indicator are all on one level, so I'm afraid the trick you suggested doesn't work

Alright_it,

Can you attach a copy of the MACDUpDown so that I can see how it is being coded?

Of course! I'm glad you're taking the time and patience to look into it. I tried myself to move a few lines around with no good results LOL

Alright_it,

I went through and was not able to find the method of switching the Z Order internally for the script. You're best bet would be to have a second MACDUpDown and have it just plot the Avg and the other the MACD

Cool! Simple and effective! Looks ok now. I should have thought about it myself. Thanks very much, Cal.
