Color Day - MetaTrader 5 Script | Forex Indicator Download - MT4/MT5 Resources - MetaTrader 5 Resources

The Color Day indicator colors bullish and bearish days.

If the daily closing price is greater than the opening price, the color is blue (customizable in settings).

 input color up = blue; // color for bullish days

If the daily closing price is less than the opening price, the color is red (customizable in settings).

 Input color DN = red; // color for bearish days

Copy the opening price, closing price, and opening time days for a specified number of days:

 Copy time ( void , PERIOD_D1 , 0 , days + 1 , tm);
copyopen ( void , PERIOD_D1 , 0 , day + 1 , operation);
ReplicationClose ( void , PERIOD_D1 , 0 , days + 1 , cl);

to the corresponding array:

 Date and time tm[]; double operation[]; double cl[];

Before installing the indicator to the chart, set the dimensions of the array:

 Integer initialization ()
  { //--- indicator buffer mapping comment ( "" );
arrayresize (tm, days);
arrayResize (ops, days);
Array resize (cl, days); //--- return ( initialization successful );
  }

Assign the value of the array cell to a variable and determine the off time for each day Time 1 :

 datetimetime0 =tm[i];
datetimetime1 =time0+ 3600 * 24 ;
Doubledopen =op[i];
Double dclose=cl[i];

Use the placerect() function:

 Blank placement rectangle ( string name, date time t1, double p1, date time t2, double p2, color clear)
  {
Object delete ( 0 , name); //--- Create a rectangle by given coordinates Object create ( 0 , name, OBJ_rectangle , 0 ,t1,p1,t2,p2); //--- Set the rectangle color object set integer ( 0 , name, OBJPROP_COLOR , clr); //--- Enable (true) or disable (false) filled rectangle mode object set integer ( 0 , name, OBJPROP_FILL , true );
  }

Color the day based on price action:

 if (dclose  "Rectangle" + ( thin string )dopen, time0,dopen, time1,dclose,DN);
if (dclose>dopen) PutRect( "rectangle" + ( thin string )dopen, time 0, doopen, time 1, dclose, UP);

Iterate over all the days specified by the parameters in the loop :

for ( integer i= 0 ;i<=day;i++)
    {
Copy time ( void , PERIOD_D1 , 0 , days + 1 , tm);
copyopen ( void , PERIOD_D1 , 0 , day + 1 , operation);
ReplicationClose ( void , PERIOD_D1 , 0 , days + 1 , cl);

datetimetime0 =tm[i];
datetimetime1 =time0+ 3600 * 24 ;
Doubledopen =op[i];
Double dclose=cl[i];

if (dclose  "Rectangle" + ( thin string )dopen, time0,dopen, time1,dclose,DN);
if (dclose>dopen) PutRect( "rectangle" + ( thin string )dopen, time 0, doopen, time 1, dclose, UP);

Remove object() function when removing an indicator from a chart using:

 BlankDeleteObject ()
  {
for ( integer i = total number of objects ( 0 , 0 , obj_rectangle ) - 1 ; i >= 0 ; i - )
     {
string_name = object_name ( 0 , i , 0 , obj_rectangle );
if ( String find (name, "rectangle" , 0 )>= 0 ) object delete ( 0 , name);
    }
  }

Remove the created object from the chart:

 Blank solution initialization ( constant integer reason)
  {
Comment ( "" );
  deleteObject();
  }

 Enter the integer number of days = 11 ; // Calculate the number of days
input color up = blue; // color for bullish days
Input color DN = red; // color for bearish days
