Identify triple tap on custom view

I want to draw circle, whenever user taps on a custom view, and based on tap count circle color changes.

Single Tap : YELLOW CIRCLE
Double Tap : GREEN CIRCLE
Triple Tap : RED COLOR

Problem is that, i made one custom view that will count tap event based on time, but some time it miss the first tap. which cause the problem in view.

Following code shows all my effort to make above custom view.
