Using between in AssignBackgroundColor

[CapitaineFlam88]

The value of ProfitPerte is between -5 ans -10, While ThinkScript does not give me any error on that line or any. The color won't show up?

AssignBackgroundColor (if ProfitPerte between -5 and -10 then Color.BLUE else Color.BLACK );

Works fine for me

input N_Period = 8;
input R_Period = 13;

def Ln = Lowest(low, N_Period);
def Hn = Highest(high, N_Period);
def EMA_r = ExpAverage(close, R_period);
def Y = ((close - Ln)/(Hn - Ln)) * 100;
def X = ExpAverage(Y, R_period);
def Lxn = Lowest(x, n_period);
def Hxn = Highest(x, n_period);
def DSS = ((X - Lxn)/(Hxn - Lxn)) * 100;

plot DSSb = ExpAverage(Dss, R_period);
AssignBackgroundColor(
if DSSb between 20 and 80 then color.orange else color.plum);

Could it be that it's a negative number? Ya seem to work now when I multiply the variable by -1

Perhaps using AbsValue() would be a better solution...
