How PaintBar Algorithm works

To better understand how the algorithm that creates the PaintBars works, we will try to make a small change to the code.

We will increase the high by 0.05% and reduce the low by 0.05%.
As you can see the algorithm modifies not only the color but also the body of the candle.

Example of EasyLanguage Code:

High_PB = High + (High*0.05);
Low_PB = Low – (Low*0.05);

Finally, we can use this PaintBar EasyLanguage indicator to draw an area in the chart.

Variables: Top(0), Bottom(0);

Top = BollingerBand(Close, 14, 2);
Bottom = BollingerBand(Close, 14, -2);

If ADX(14) < 25 Then
PlotPaintBar(Top, Bottom, "Area", Blue);
