thx man!

I try this.

Which type of variable should be? I tried IndicatorDataSeries but it was impossible to compile. Could you help me?

        [Parameter("Spread Color", DefaultValue = "White")]
        public string Spread_Color { get; set; }

Change line 12 to this:

private Colors spread_c;

(( sry man....

using System;
using cAlgo.API;
using cAlgo.API.Internals;
using cAlgo.API.Indicators;

namespace cAlgo.Indicators
{

    [Indicator(IsOverlay = true, AccessRights = AccessRights.None)]
    public class DrawSpread : Indicator
    {
        private Colors spread_c;
        [Parameter("Spread Color", DefaultValue = "White")]
        public string Spread_Color { get; set; }
        public override void Calculate(int index)
        {
            if (IsLastBar)
                DisplaySpreadOnChart();
            Enum.TryParse<Colors>(Spread_Color, out spread_c);
        }

        private void DisplaySpreadOnChart()
        {
            var spread = Math.Round(Symbol.Spread / Symbol.PipSize, 2);
            string text = string.Format("{0}", spread);
            ChartObjects.DrawText("Label", "Spread:", StaticPosition.TopLeft, spread_c);
            ChartObjects.DrawText("spread", "\t" + text, StaticPosition.TopLeft, spread_c);
        }
    }
}

No change is not present, I still think it is necessary to change the line 14 the variable type. You see, I want to make here is that when you open the property would be an indicator, I can choose the color, for example, in MA, have any ideas? For the second day I fight ...

I don't know what else could be causing problem. Your cAlgo is working for me without any issue. Make sure you are inserting valid colors name. Try to change to "Yellow" for example.

Now he works as a line, that is, in words I am writing color, and whether it is possible to do when selecting I could choose the color?)) As there

That works only on outputs. Sample:

[Output("Result", Color = Colors.Green)]
public IndicatorDataSeries Result { get; set; }
