Good evening everyone, here is a screenshot of Spy for approx the last year. this is the blast off indicator but changed normal candle colors to grey and blast off candles to white. My question is can someone make a repaint indicator of an inside bar indicator? basically repainting candlesticks that are inside bars, i marked inside bars with yellow X's. Thank you in advance!

More specifically, a single study that integrates both the repainting of inside candles and blast off candles.

Because I used chatgpt to modify the blastoff indicator to look for inside candles and repaint them red and it worked, but they’re two separate studies and one supersedes the other so they can’t be on the chart at the same time. I’m looking for a single study that blast off repaint & inside bars repaints and all other candles repainted gray.

input trig = 20;
input paintbar = yes;

def val = absValue(close - open);
def range = high - low;
def blastOffVal = (val / range) * 100;
def trigger = trig;
def alert1 = blastOffVal < trig;
def col = blastOffVal < trig;

def inside = high < high[1] and low > low[1];

assignPriceColor(if paintbar and blastOffVal<trig then Color.MAGENTA else if paintbar and inside then color.cyan else Color.Current);

# Plot Arrow
plot arrow = col;
arrow.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.BOOLEAN_ARROW_UP)...
