Comparing two VMA values to determine trend - Plotting in Market Analyzer

[markbb10]

Hello does anyone know of a indicator that compares two moving average values and can plot the result in the market analyzer. I am looking to determine the following
2 VMA Plots (15 and 50)
Is the 15 above the 50?
Are the 15 and 50 above or below current price.
Looking to color code results in the market analyzer for a quick status reference

I am looking for some code that might do something like this. I am not a active programmer so I am looking for some starting point without have to start from scratch.

Thanks,
mark

Hello markbb10,

Thanks for your post.

I am not aware of such an indicator.

For the market analyzer, you would need a transparent "signal" plot. Transparent because you likely do not want to show this on the chart because a signal plot values will be quite different than the moving average values. The signal plot values would be what you decide based on the conditions you are trying to represent. For example a +1 might mean 15 above 50 and above current price, -1 might mean 15 below the 50 and below the current price, 0 might mean neither condition is true. You can extend this numerical out any way you wish as long as you know what the values mean. Then, in the market analyzer, you would work with the values of the plot and set the cell conditions according to the values of the plot.
