  • hull ma variation

    I would like to know if there is an existing efs that changes color
    like the hull moving average but based on a normal exponential
    formula and NOT the hull formula. In other words, price closes above the 20ema and ma turns Green, price close below 20ema
    price turns Red.

    Thanks for any help!!

    With a couple of simple edits the MAPriceBars efs that is in the PriceBars folder of Formulas (which is in your eSignal directory) can be modified to do that as it already contains the required logic.
    In line 22 replace sma(nInputLength, 0); with ema(nInputLength, 0);.
    Then in lines 28 and 30 replace setPriceBarColor(Color.red); and setPriceBarColor(Color.lime); with setBarFgColor(Color.red); and setBarFgColor(Color.lime); respectively.
    Once you made the changes save the script with a different name and it should do what you are looking for.

        I am aware of that which is why in my reply I also included the instructions to replace the commands that paint the price bars (ie setPriceBarColor()) with those that paint the moving average (ie setBarFgColor())
