One line moving average crossover

[Alkkkz]

Hello fellow traders,

is there a moving average line that changes color when MA 9 crosses over 21? I need one line that changes color. Not the traditional two lines.

So you have two lines, 9 MA and 21 MA, on your chart. Which one needs to change color when there is a crossover?

Here is a lower study version:

declare lower;

input price = close;
input length1 = 9;
input length2 = 21;
input displace = 0;

def SMA1 = Average(price[-displace], length1);
def SMA2 = Average(price[-displace], length2);

def bull_crossover = SMA1 crosses above SMA2;
def bear_crossover = SMA1 crosses below SMA2;

plot Data = 1;
Data.AssignValueColor(if bull_crossover then color.green else if bear_crossover then color.red else color.gray);

I think this is what is being requested.

# plots the second SMA and colors it based on whether the first is above or below
input length1 = 9;
input length2 = 21;

def m1 = SimpleMovingAvg(close, length1);
def m2 = SimpleMovingAvg(close, length2);

plot MA = m2;
MA.AssignValueColor(if m1 > m2 then Color.GREEN else if m1 < m2 then Color.RED else Color.YELLOW);

@Slippage Yes sir. Thank you very much! This is exactly what I was looking for.

Know this thread is old but is there anyway to scan for when the shorter MA crosses above the longer one (9 over 21)?

I tried in my scanner by selecting this study in the study filter but couldn’t create it that way.

Scan Code ONLY does not plot on a chart:
# plots the second SMA and colors it based on whether the first is above or below
input length1 = 9;
input length2 = 21;

def m1 = SimpleMovingAvg(close, length1);
def m2 = SimpleMovingAvg(close, length2);

plot MA = m1[1] < m2[1] and m1 > m2 ;
MA.hide();
