If you're looking to enhance your trading experience with MetaTrader 5, the DRAW_COLOR_BARS indicator might just be the tool you need. This nifty indicator draws bars for a specified instrument right in a separate window, making it easier to visualize market movements.
One of the cool features of this indicator is how the bar colors change randomly every N ticks. You can easily adjust the N parameter manually through the Inputs tab in the indicator properties dialog box. Initially, this indicator is set up with 8 different colors for the plot using the #property compiler directive. But here’s the kicker: in the OnCalculate() function, the color is picked at random from a selection of 14 colors stored in the colors[] array. Talk about keeping things interesting!
