Can we make HalfTrend MTF show trends as histograms?

While exploring Mr. Meyney's Trading Pullbacks System thread (trading-pullbacks-system-t8474130.html), I compared several trend indicators as alternatives to Mr. Meyney's multi-moving average system for trend analysis, aiming to simplify the interface and improve clarity.

The "HalfTrend MTF with Channels ahtf_ribbon mod BT" indicator was chosen for its MTF (Multi-Time Frame) functionality and the ability to fine-tune parameters by inputting double values for Amplitude and ChannelDeviation, which helps in adjusting settings more precisely.

I’d like to ask the experts if we could:

Make the indicator lighter (reduce code complexity)
Display trends using histograms instead of toggle buttons
Keep the core MTF and parameter customization features

Best regards.

I'm grateful to the friends in the forum for providing abundant resources. I finally located the histogram corresponding to this indicator in a post from several years ago on the forum. Everything meets the requirements except for the inability to set the ChannelDeviation parameter.

This is truly a fantastic forum.
