Overview
Chad's Alert EMAs (@tradeprophet) detects crossovers between the shorter and longer periods and generates an alert condition whenever the two moving averages intersect. Users can customize the length of each exponential moving average as well as visual styling options, including line width and transparency. As a basic dual moving average overlay, signals update on unconfirmed bars in real time, and the script contains no dedicated trade management or exit rules.
The inputs you can change from the gear icon on the chart. Defaults are the author's.
