The first draft. But I don't like it.
Inserted Code
//+------------------------------------------------------------------+
//| Here is a simple code to plot the candlesticks in the NinjaTrader|
//| or eSignal style. After you apply this indicator, change the     |
//| settings in Properties (F8) Bar Up/Down, Bull/Bear Candle to None|
//| and the color scheme "... on White". You'll have the candles     |
//| displayed with the shadows (wicks) black and candle bodies       |
//| (themselves only) lime and red.                                  |

Hey thank you, why don't you like it ? Isn't it possible to have a larger body for the candles (bigger than size 5) ?

It's property PLOT_LINE_WIDTH (The thickness of the drawing line) of the DRAW_COLOR_HISTOGRAM2 style. You can now insert this value directly in new version. But proper values are only from range 1-5 I'm afraid.

I'm too busy these days. Maybe I'll get some another idea later.

Hey guys,

Not sure if you knew this, but the platform offers native support for colored candles. Just go to the chart properties colors tab and change down-bar to red. Also MQL5 has a way to draw candlesticks now so you don't have to use the MT4 histogram hack. https://www.mql5.com/en/docs/customi...s/draw_candles

No. This is not a solution.

DRAW_CANDLES
You can set up to three colors for the DRAW_CANDLES style affecting the candle look. If only one color is set, it is applied to all candles on a chart.

If two comma-separated colors are specified, the first one is applied to candle outlines, while the second one is applied to the body.

Specify three comma-separated colors so that rising and falling candles are displayed differently. In that case, the first color is applied to the candle outlines, while the second and third ones – to bullish and bearish candles.

Seems to be an MT5 problem with Ninja candles or Candles Wider indicators, doesn't works the sam eway as Thickwick indicator works on MT4

Only seems to work on zoomed charts, but on an unzoomed, chart body becomes same thickness as wicks, even if set at 5 & 2 respectively.
It never gets easier, you just get better
