Is the Median pricetype the same as ((High+Low)/2), or high/low average?

Thank you Dierk. I had a question about this in conjunction with my other post about the CCIwithColor indicator. Should adding the ' PriceTypeSupported = true;' statement in the 'protected override void Initialize()' section cause the ability to choose pricetype for the CCI? I added it and it compiled, but selecting Median price doesn't really seem to make a difference from whatever it was set to before pricetype was selected as true...

Please see the implimenation of the CCI: it's not reflective of price type since it uses the "Typical" data series:

Thank you, Dierk. Is there a way to allow for adjustment of pricetype in the CCI? I am looking to set it at Median instead of Typical.

Sure. Open CCI->Right click->Save As-><select your indicator name>
... and then edit the indicator.

Thanks Dierk. I went ahead and did that, but is there a way to make the customCCI default to a Median pricetype setting, just as the original CCI is at a Typical pricetype? I don't mind if I cannot adjust this on the charts, I'd just like to keep it at Median. The reason I'd like to do this is the make sure that any other custom indicator I reference to this customCCI is using the Median setting.

Just edit the indicator as per below and replace any occurence of Typical by Median.

Wow, that made everything SO much easier, Dierk! Thank you again!
