Paint Background Based On Channels

[Piper2808t]

can someone assist in a background color when if long background green and short background red thanks its in a strategy


def long = if tradeTime and ohlc4 > upper and ohlc4[1] > upper[1] and ohlc4[2] < upper[2] then ohlc4 else Double.NaN;

def short = if tradeTime and ohlc4 < lower and ohlc4[1] < lower[1] and ohlc4[2] > lower[2] then ohlc4 else Double.NaN;

def long = if tradeTime and ohlc4 > upper and ohlc4[1] > upper[1] and ohlc4[2] < upper[2] then ohlc4 else Double.NaN;

def short = if tradeTime and ohlc4 < lower and ohlc4[1] < lower[1] and ohlc4[2] > lower[2] then ohlc4 else Double.NaN;

Without all of the code, based upon the assumptions in the following, the background will only color green or red when long or short occur at a bar.

input backgroundcolor = yes;

def tradetime = yes;
def upper = BollingerBands("num dev dn" = -1.0, "num dev up" = 1.0).UpperBand;
def lower = BollingerBands("num dev dn" = -1.0, "num dev up" = 1.0).LowerBand;

plot long = if ohlc4 > upper and ohlc4[1] >upper[1] and ohlc4[2] < upper[2] then ohlc4 else Double.NaN;
long.setpaintingStrategy(paintingStrategy.VALUES_ABOVE);

plot short = if ohlc4 < lower and ohlc4[1] < lower[1] and ohlc4[2] > lower[2] then ohlc4 else Double.NaN;
short.setpaintingStrategy(paintingStrategy.VALUES_BELOW);

plot line = ohlc4;
line.setdefaultColor(color.magenta);
line.setlineWeight(5);

assignbackgroundColor(if !backgroundcolor then color.current else if !isnan(long) then Color.GREEN else if !isnan(short) then color.red else color.current);
