Looking for a simple green label when the WMA 8 and 16 are converging and maybe white when they are not on and it work on multiple time frames with the same study? i'm trying to set it up to work on 1 min, 2 min, 3 min, 4, min, 5 min, 6 min, 7 min, 8 min, 9min, 10 min, 15 min, 20 min, 30 min, 1h, 90 min, 2 h

here is a study that checks if the gap between 2 averages is getting closer or farther apart.
i set up 4 conditions, up and down , and whether if wma8 is above or below the other wma.
can show colored dots for each condition.
can show colored vertical test lines.
i used MovingAverage( weighted ) for WMA(). i like using that to allow changes to other average types.
it displays a colored label , based on the current bar...
