By default, NinjaTrader does not allow candle wicks to be colored independently based on whether the candle closed higher or lower.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There is just a single configurable color for wicks.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This indicator makes it possible to assign separate colors to the wicks of up and down candles.

## Parameters
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Up Candle**: The color to assign to the wicks of candles where price closes higher. (Default: Lime Green)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Down Candle**: The color to assign to the wicks of candles where price closes lower. (Default: Red)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For doji candles (where the candle closes exactly where it opened), the color of the wick will match the previous candle.
