Howdy and good evening,

I am including some script that I put together/modified to allow the users to select which colors they want to show when market indices are positive/negative/neutral. The problem I can't figure out is that when they select a color, it doesn't show up on the chart label background color on the chart. It appears to select the color 5 colors down from wherever it's initially selected.

If someone could, look into the script to see what I am missing. Whatever the color the trader select, that color needs to be applied to the chart label when the condition is met.

Here is the code:
input Label_Neutral_Color = {"magenta", "dark_red", "dark_green", "red", "white", "plum", "dark_orange", "green", "pink", "orange", default "yellow", "cyan", "blue", "gray", "violet"};

input Label_Positive_Color = {"magenta", "dark_red", "dark_green", "yellow", "white", "plum", "dark_orange", "red", "pink", "orange", default "green", "cyan", "blue", "gray", "violet"};

input Label_Negative_Color = {"magenta", "dark_red", "dark_green", "yellow", "white", "plum", "dark_orange", "green", "pink", "orange", default "red", "cyan", "blue", "gray", "violet"};


def Post = SecondsFromTime(1600);
def Pre = SecondsTillTime(930);
def Closed = Post >= 0 or Pre >= 0;
def DayClose = If (Post >= 0, close(period = "Day"), close(period = "Day")[1]);



#*************************************************

def Vxx_Close = close (symbol = "VIX", period = AggregationPeriod.DAY);
def Vxx_change = ( Vxx_Close / Vxx_ClosePrice - 1);
def Vxx_value_change = Vxx_Close - Vxx_ClosePrice ;
def Vxx_percent_change = Vxx_change * 100 ;

def VxxloDiff = VxxLowPeriod[1] - VxxLowPeriod;


def VxxplusDM = if VxxhiDiff > VxxloDiff and VxxhiDiff > 0 then VxxhiDiff else 0;
def VxxminusDM = if VxxloDiff > VxxhiDiff and VxxloDiff > 0 then VxxloDiff else 0;
