Can you reproduce this with an available data set?

Are your -scatter- statements on two different lines? As you have it written
the second graph will overwrite the first graph.

Perhaps it should be something like this:

 sysuse auto, clear
 scatter mpg gear if foreign == 0, mcolor(red) || /// 
 scatter mpg gear if foreign == 1, mcolor(blue)
