The indicator draws averaged candlesticks of a larger timeframe as color filled rectangles using DRAW_FILLING buffers.

Depending on candlestick direction its body is painted in green or orange, shadows are painted in lime or yellow.

The indicator requires the compiled indicator file Candles_Smoothed.mq5 for operation. Place it to terminal_data_folder\MQL5\Indicators\.
