    Accessing the user defined plot color parameter from within an indicator.

    I've modified the MASlopeBox indicator to support multiple instances, and now I'd like to be able to make it clearer which box is for which moving average.

    Currently the box color is red or green depending on the slope and to help separate them, I'd like to make the rectangle color be the same as the Plot Color as defined by the user in the indicator dialog (i.e have the rectangle colors be green, blue, yellow, purple red).



    This is the current code:

    graphics.DrawRectangle(new Pen(degreesColor), bounds.X + bounds.Width - 60, bounds.Y + bounds.Height - Boxnumber * 40, 46, 22);
    I was hoping there was something like Plot0.Color, which could substitute for the degreesColor variable, but I'm stumped.

    I realize this is likely beyond what the NT team provides support for, but if any of the other forum users could give me a hint, I would be very grateful.

    I figured it out!

    graphics.DrawRectangle(new Pen(Plots[0].Pen.Color), bounds.X + bounds.Width - 60, bounds.Y + bounds.Height - Boxnumber * 40, 46, 22);



    Now to add TEMA, and I'm all set...
