Hello, Looking to code when a candle passes back through the first 5 minute candle to turn the candle that either passes below(closes) the high of the 9:30 AM 5 minute candle - make the candle orange. Same as for the candle that passes above(closes) the low of the 9:30 AM candle - make the candle orange.

Thank you in advance

                 then color.orange
                 else color.current);

###Tessting
input testing = yes;
plot fivehigh = if !testing then double.nan else firsthigh;
fivehigh.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.HORIZONTAL);

plot fivelow = if !testing then double.nan else firstlow;
fivelow.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.HORIZONTAL);
