In the Easy Language code editor, you can right click and bring up "Properties". This sets the default settings that are applied when an indicator is first inserted. You can also click the "Default" button to do the same thing. I like to set the defaults so that I don't need to designate in the code what I want the Style settings to be. For example:

Plot1(High + 0.1, "Plot Name", Blue, Default, 3);

I can just use:


Plot1(High + 0.1, "Plot Name");

And set the color and line weight in the default.

Your first line is called "Hard code".
ie you don't want to change things around.

Your second line is called "No code".
ie you want to change things around at the chart level.


The third choice is called "Soft code".
ie you want things changed automatically based on predefined conditions.


eg.

var: 
color(0);

if MA > MA[1] then 
color = blue
else 
color = red;

Plot1(High + 0.1, "Plot Name", color);
