AIMS Wave bar color
The AIMS waves bars always appear to be orange on some charts.

Re: AIMS Wave bar color
Hi Kolton, welcome to AIMS!
The eWave has a setting that can display "close to zero line" as these orange bars. I think by default this setting is +/- 0.0006 (but that's from memory, I haven't looked at it for a while). If you look at the scale on the eWave in your picture you'll see that even at the peaks the value doesn't exceed about 0.00048, so is therefore less than 0.0006, and is therefore shown as orange bars and as close to zero line. During off market times where there is very little volatility you will often get a value less than 0.0006, and changing timeframes also greatly affects what value is considered as close to zero line. My suggestion is to go into the indicator settings for the eWave and remove the orange bars all together, just concentrate on fresh crosses of the zero line.

Re: AIMS Wave bar color
Thank you Dave and Immy. I'll turn off the orange bars. I actually prefer the older version of AIMS without the new dots and black diamonds. I might turn them off as well if I can. Thanks again.
