I'm interested in the text related to the coloring of up/down volumne. The default plot is line graph and I need to change it to histogram every time I invoke the inidicator. Can Metastock be made to remember that the default line style is histogram for this indicator? Thanks. HM

MetaStock has 1 default color/style for all plotted indicators.  This can be changed under Tools-->Default Colors and Styles.  Be aware that this change would affect all indicators though, so you'd likely not want to use this method.

The only other way to have MetaStock "remember" the style of the indicator is to save the indicator as part of a template.  Once the template is saved, you can apply that template to any symbol, and it should remember the style of the indicator.
