The “Supertrend + SAR” background indicator

v10.3
The “Supertrend + SAR” background indicator

Hello fellow traders,

This is a simple but nice code to get a GREEN background if close > Supertrend and Parabolic SAR, and RED background if close < Supertrend and Parabolic SAR.

Simple, but effective and useful. Of course, it is better on trend markets.

It will give you clearly the way to trade, don’t enter against the trend!

Of course, you can add other conditions.

From this, you can try to test your own strategies, with this filter. I will personally try to test it in combination with precise entry / exit rules.

Regards,

    Hi Doc, I changed the code a bit, “RETURN” can be use all alone in version 10.3 since drawing things don’t necessary need predefined variables.

    Hi Nico, I’ve just learnt something, thanks !

    Hello ,
    J’ai la version 10.2 et ca ne marche pas, qu’est ce qui coince ? 
    Merci a vous

    If i switch between different Markets, the Backgroundcolour will appear where it should not. As you can see at the picture. ( https://picload.org/view/dgpogoga/supertrendsar.png.html) Does anybody know what is the problem?

    How can I get alerts on colour change?
