William Blau SMI with EMA difference (aka histogram)

[Tango]

I have not been able to find in the forum an indicator of the original William Balu's SMI that includes the EMA difference shown as a histogram. Please see the following images for details and required parameters.

I would appreciate if anyone can point me to the equivalent thinkscript. Thanks in advance.

@Tango It would be helpful if you could provide a link to the study you have referenced... We do have SMI study topics here in these forums... Most notably the Ironrod_SMI_Histogram which is a lower indicator...

Thanks for the feedback @rad14733. I do not have the indicator. The included screen shots are from a ninjatrader indicator.

Well those pics came from somewhere... We shouldn't have to go hunting for something you want converted... Can't create it based on pics...

Dunno where to find 'the original William Balu's SMI' but TOS has one.

Added a histgram to the original study.

# Add a histogram -- mfsteve 12/10/20
plot ZeroLine = 0;
ZeroLine.SetDefaultColor(Color.WHITE);

plot wave = SMI - AvgSMI;
wave.SetPaintingStrategy(PaintingStrategy.HISTOGRAM);
wave.SetLineWeight(5);
wave.SetDefaultColor(Color.RED);

@mfsteve thanks so much.... this is pretty much what was looking for. It has the histogram. The only thing that is missing are the typical additional smoothing averages, but that is not a big deal. Cheers!

Is there a way you can turn EMA crosses into histogram .. Example turn the ema cross cloud into histogram<?
