Functions

bgcolor()

Shades the pane's background. Like `barcolor` it adds no value to the chart. It differs from `barcolor` in one way that matters: it takes a `force_overlay` argument and `barcolor` does not.

Syntax

                bgcolor(series color color, const string title, input int offset, const bool force_overlay) → void
              

Arguments

color series color The colour applied to the background. Series-form. Optional.
title const string The name of the colouring. Const-form.
offset input int Shifts the colouring along the chart. Input-form.
force_overlay const bool Sets this drawing's overlay, separately from the script-wide setting.

Return Type

void

Example


          indicator("Custom Background Color", overlay=true)
bullish = close > open
bearish = close < open
bgColor = bullish ? color.green : bearish ? color.red : na
