Yes. **[Jestor](https://jestor.com/?ref=blog.jestor.com)** indicators accept two simultaneous color conditionals — one for the data and another for the background — letting you, for example, turn the number red when it's below a value and the background a different color when it's above another value, all on the same indicator.

## Why does having two conditionals on one indicator help you read data faster?

An indicator with a single color rule already helps highlight values outside the expected range, but combining two conditionals — one for the text and another for the background — lets you communicate more visual nuance at once, with no need for two separate indicators taking up dashboard space.

## How to configure two color conditionals in Jestor?

1. Access the indicator's style editor.
2. Set the first color conditional for the data — for example, red when the value is below a defined threshold.
3. Set a second color conditional for the indicator's background, with its own independent rule.
4. Both conditionals work at the same time, reflecting the indicator's current value according to the configured formula.

| Conditional                | Applies to                                     |
| -------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------- |
| **Data conditional**       | Color of the number displayed on the indicator |
| **Background conditional** | Color of the indicator block's background      |
