- If the histograms of the TrendLinearReg.ex4 custom indicator turns lime green and is aligned above the 0.00 signal level, price is said to be pressured higher i.e. a buy alert. When the color of the histogram turns red while aligned above the 0.00 level, don’t be alarmed, as this is a show of sellers pulling price in a bullish market.
